BSOD Blue Screen When Playing Overwatch 2 - Anyone else?

having the same issue with a 1060 and intel i7-8700, can only run the game for about 5 - 10 min before
getting a bsod with dcp watchdog violation, have updated Windows and my ssd drivers also have the latest nvidia driver but interestingly have also been getting bsod 3 times while not running the game after installing it i have never seen that problem before, i think it might be related to high cpu usedge since i have also seen spinkes in the usedge every 30- 60 sec from system interrupts causing 1 sec stutters when these hit while running the game that might be what is causing it

I have a 2080TI and it’s happening to me.

Do you all have NVIDIA RTX Voice / Nvidia Broadcast installed?

I do. Do you have it installed too?

Yes and the kernel dump indicates that it might be the issue:

FAILURE_BUCKET_ID: 0x133_OUT_OF_SYNC_PROCESSOR_STACKPTR_ERROR_nvrtxvad64v!unknown_function

(nvrtxvad64v.sys is the nvidia rtx voice driver)

I also have Nvidia Broadcast installed and running. I’m getting a different FAILURE_BUCKET_ID though. My dump file is listing:

FAILURE_BUCKET_ID: 0x133_DPC_nt!KeAccumulateTicks

I’m not sure what to make of this one yet.

EDIT:
I used WhoCrashed (a recommendation from a volunteer on these forums) to try and get a better idea of what was causing the problem. It reported Nvidia Broadcast as the culprit for all of the dump files that I have. Looks like CPTNCosmo was on to something. I don’t know why it wasn’t showing up in WinDbg for me. For anyone getting BSODs it might be worth checking out your dump files with WhoCrashed.

I’m having the same issue, sometimes 15 mins, sometimes hours in. It’s even happened while I have OW2 open but minimized.
I’m running a 2070SUPER with a Ryzen 7 2700x and I’ve never had this issue with any other game inc OW1.
Also saw some people mentioning NVIDIA software, I’m running broadcast constantly so maybe that’s something to do with it.

Uninstalled NVIDIA Broadcast, waiting for queue right now to test crash!
EDIT: So far no crash, been playing for a few hours and no crash so far! will update if that changes! TRY UNINSTALLING NVIDIA BROADCAST (OR ANY PROGRAM THAT USES RTX VOICE) IF YOU HAVE IT

I also uninstalled it and so far looking good - but then again it can sometimes take a few hours to happen… But I hope that resolved the issue

don’t have nvidia broadcast how are you looking at the crash dumps?

Exactly same issue here.

Rtx 2080, Ryzen 9 3900x

I used WinDbg
do you perhaps use any other software that uses RTX voice, for example Logitech GHub can use it

think i fixed it now now have 40 min in game and have not crashed
i don’t use other rtx software looking at the crash dump using this guide:
https: //www .windowscentral .com/how-open-and-analyze-dump-error-files-windows-10
apparently glasswire was causing the issues i just uninstalled it

I also have this issue when playing or in queue. Honestly really sucks, I put in a bug report.

Has your BSOD’s stopped as well nixing the Nvidia Broadcast?

Yeah, so far didn’t have any crashes - but getting super-long queues instead, which is unrelated though :smiley: but no crashes in a few hours, so I think that resolved the issue for me

Fixed for myself by uninstalling my graphics drivers entirely using DDU and re-installing them. I had NVIDIA Broadcast when I was getting the BSODs, but after doing this even with NVIDIA Broadcast running I haven’t been getting any BSODs anymore playing the entire day. Hope it helps anyone else

I have the same issue. I also put in a bug report. I have a NVIDIA 2060 GPU and Ryzen 2600 CPU, running on Windows 10. I also have NVIDIA Broadcast installed. I will try uninstalling it and see if this stops the random BSOD. I will update my reply if this solution works.

Edit: After disabling “NVIDIA Broadcast”, my game has not crashed leading to BSOD.

Stopping Nvidia broadcast fixed the BSOD for myself.

I played for about 5 hours without crashing as apposed to crashing every 4-5 games prior to doing this.

I haven’t had a bluescreen since I disabled Broadcast tonight. It seems to have done the trick.
