I upgraded the BIOS to 1.09 because the Razer software told me to. Now Windows routinely blue screens and throws a “clock watchdog timeout” error of some sort. This used to happen once every few weeks, since I bought the computer. But now, it happens every time I run any CPU-intensive application (e.g., games).
As noted… this was a sporadic issues for ages, but since installing v1.09 BIOS update, it’s pretty much every time I try to do anything.
The BIOS update finished successfully and without any errors. But immediately after rebooting Windows would blue screen every single time the login happened. I uninstalled all Razer software and now I can at least log in to Windows, but again, as indicated, any time I do something that requires CPU, like a game, the computer freezes and throws the watchdog error.
