    Windows 10 Troubleshooting CLOCK_WATCHDOG_TIMER BSOD in Civ 5 After Recent Windows Update

    I managed to bypass the problem? Windows defender and browser security were some how disabled? I enabled them and have not seen this BSOD since, which had been occurring like clockwork, knock on wood. I doubt this is the actual problem? Windows Updater and NVidia Updater running...
