Dpc_watchdog vilolation bsod

Hey all,

Im supporting a rollout of approx 120 displaylink based devices, and all has worked rather well so far - with most users happily using them ,adn only occasional resets of the device/users laptops needed.

We have had 2 users report however a BSOD happening with their particular docking station.
The BSOD is DPC_WATCHDOG VILOLATION. Both users report this to happen shortly after plugging in the dock (but not every time).

We have had 5 docks proved to be faulty from our rollout so far (USB device’s Device Descriptor request failed.), im looking at these 2 docks being similarly faulty.

Systems:
Late 2013 Macbook Air, Running Windows 8.1, latest 7.5u1 Drivers.
One of the users has had their laptop replaced due to the issue, and it hasnt resolved it - so thats why im looking at the docks now.

Thanks
