Provide the following:

What processor model number?

What operating system? Windows 10? If so, what version number? 1809? Lower?

Are you a laptop or desktop?

What is the model number of your system/motherboard and who is the manufacturer?

What Intel graphics do you have?

Here is what WhoCrashed says:

 

Crash Dump Analysis

Crash dumps are enabled on your computer. 

 

Crash dump directories: 

C:\WINDOWS

C:\WINDOWS\Minidump

 

On Mon 29.04.2019 13:40:50 your computer crashed or a problem was reported

crash dump file: C:\WINDOWS\Minidump\042919-6156-01.dmp

This was probably caused by the following module: ntoskrnl.exe (nt+0x1B3730) 

Bugcheck code: 0x133 (0x1, 0x1E00, 0xFFFFF804025E5380, 0x0)

Error: DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION

file path: C:\WINDOWS\system32\ntoskrnl.exe

product: Microsoft® Windows® Operating System

company: Microsoft Corporation

description: NT Kernel & System

Bug check description: The DPC watchdog detected a prolonged run time at an IRQL of DISPATCH_LEVEL or above. This could be caused by either a non-responding driver or non-responding hardware. This bug check can also occur because of overheated CPUs (thermal issue). 

The crash took place in the Windows kernel. Possibly this problem is caused by another driver that cannot be identified at this time.

I asked "HOW" you are activating VT while you are running the OS. Explain in detail what you are doing.

i'm activating VT in the BIOS (enable Intel Virtualization Technology).

 

then when i'm running the OS, there are sometimes BSODs, like every 1 or 2 days...

And, these BSODs do not occur if you do not enable VT in the bios?

 

Download and run this tool. then, report back:

The Tests also passed with VT enabled.

 

I could try to let VT a few days enabled and observe, if system crashes again...

Your processor is not the problem. I would look at memory as a possible problem.
