DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION error when adding device
Brand new DELL computer, first thing I did was to update from Windows 8 to 8.1 and one of my devices won't show up, tried to scan for new device and getting that blue screen... Tried updating the disk drive firmware (Seagate st500dm002-1bd142) but no update driver on Seagate website or anywhere else. Attached the DMP file... Help? https://www.dropbox.com/s/7dmwue71pyuyd56/012114-12328-01.dmp
