BSOD when switching to/from TURBO

Hello there,

every time I change my profile to "TURBO" from "SILENT", I get a BSOD.
After the restart, the laptop runs with the changed speed/profile. If I want to change it back to "SILENT", 95/100 I also get a BSOD. So, everytime I change my profile, I must also undergo a restart.
Sometimes is "DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION", sometimes is a storage driver (I'll come back with more details and photos).

I have this laptop for about 2y. About 1y ago, an "Armoury Crate" update made this mess possible. Ever since, a change in running speed comes along with a BSOD. Very rarely (5%), a change from "TURBO" to "SILENT" does not result in a BSOD.
I contacted support, they said to reinstall the OS. That's not something I'll do. I rather live with it until I sell the laptop. But if there is a quick fix, I'll be very grateful to apply it.

Thank you

How is this related to anything else but the ASUS Armoury Crate app?
I don't get a BSOD in any other circumstances, but only when I switch from TURBO/SILENT and reverse.
All mentioned steps are basic BSOD troubleshooting.
I'm sorry, but they hardly apply here.
I insist this is a specific Asus Armoury Crate topic. It all started with an update and continued ever since.
Is it possible to rollback to a previous version and test if the problem still persists? Can I switch modes in a different manner? Can I setup BIOS in a SAFE MODE, even by lowering the performances?

thanks
