When 11th Gen Dell PowerEdge Server being introduce to the market, it face a lot of challenge from other manufacturer that make customer have concern about part quality and server stability.
One of that challenge is Intel Nehalem series processor can cause blue screen "STOP 0x00000101 - Clock_watchdog_timeout" when you activate Hyper-V from Windows Server 2008 R2.
Two months back, I have customer called in not only scolding me like hell but would like to know why Dell server always cause blue screen, and not stable as what its described from Sales person.

I have no choice but get the stop code error from customer, and start my research from Microsoft Knowledge Base(KB), as well as using WinDebugger to analyze the Dump file.
Finally, I found one KB from Microsoft that explain the same STOP error, but it pointed to Intel Nehalem Processor's limitation. It simply explained this is due to serious interrupts generated from Intel code-named Nehalem Processors. For more information, can refers to below Intel document:
