I purchased an LG 17Z95P-K.AAE8U1 laptop earlier this year, and it works fine for the most part. However, it seems like nearly every day I'll get a blue screen when using Photoshop. The editing I'm doing is usually not very intensive either when I get the system crash.
I also had quite a few blue screens while playing Deus Ex (from 2000) Not sure why that game would cause the system to crash.
The error message is always "Clock_Watchdog_Timeout". I believe this is related to the Intel 11th Gen Intel® Core™ i7-1195G7 @ 2.90GHZ process I'm using.
I've attached the TXT file generated from the SSU program.
I'm not sure if the GPU could be a potential source of this problem, but I am using the Intel® Iris® Xe. When I used the newest drivers, I noticed more problems in Photoshop, so I ended up rolling back to the May drivers.

Hello PZ31,
Thank you for posting on the Intel® communities.
In order to better assist you, please provide the following information:
- Were both Photoshop and Deus Ex working fine at some point before? If so, when did the issue start?
- Make sure both programs are updated.
- Did you install Windows 10 on your laptop, or it came with it pre-installed already?
- Make sure there are no pending Windows updates.
As well, please perform the following steps:
- Try running the Intel® Processor Diagnostic Tool (https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/download/15951/19792/intel-processor-diagnostic-tool.html?) and let me know if the test result.
- Even though you have already tried the latest graphics drivers, please install them, but this time following the clean installation steps in this article: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000057389/graphics.html
Latest DCH drivers 31.0.101.3430/31.0.101.2111: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/download/19344/intel-graphics-windows-dch-drivers.html

Since this is a new laptop, I've had the problems with both Photoshop and Deus Ex ever since I first started using them. Never had a problem like this on my old HP Laptop with an Intel CPU and Nvidia GPU.
Both programs are using the latest updates.
I've got Windows 10 pre-installed from the factory, and fully updated.
I ran the Intel Diagnostic Tool and everything passed, no problems.
I'll try doing a clean install of the graphics card drivers next.
