Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 10130

PC Specs are in profile :P
So I have windbg, I followed the how to install guide (Using both the win8.1 and win10 SDK, both give the same errors, suggested fixes i tried failed on both) and regardless of what I do I have these errors throughout the console window:
*** ERROR: Module load completed but symbols could not be loaded for ntoskrnl.exe
***** Kernel symbols are WRONG. Please fix symbols to do analysis.
I tried !sym noisy/.reload which just brought up a whole bunch of HTTP errors and DLLs not found, and .symfix brought up this:
DBGHELP: Symbol Search Path: srv*c:symcache*
DBGHELP: Symbol Search Path: cache*;SRV*
DBGHELP: Symbol Search Path: cache*;SRV*
So I guess what I'm looking for is both a way to get windbg functioning properly and also an answer to what is causing my watchdog violation. I have been running Windows 10 for a while, had 1 watchdog BSOD on a previous Build and now 1 again on this one. No it isn't super frequent but it does bother me!
At the moment virtually all W10 BSODs give that output, there's nothing wrong with your WinDBG install. It's pretty hard to debug W10 BSODs at the moment until the symbols are released by MS.
I was unaware that they hadn't been released, and that would explain my trouble! I was sitting here like I know I did this right... Well thanks for confirming I'm not going nuts and I guess the thread is pointless until the symbols are available.At the moment virtually all W10 BSODs give that output, there's nothing wrong with your WinDBG install.

Unfortunately there's not much any of us can do until the symbols become available, personally I don't think I've been able to read a single dump posted to 10F yet. If you ever want more info on WinDBG feel free to have a read thorough this WinDBG - The Basics for Debugging Crash Dumps in Windows 10 - Windows 10 blog and as soon as we can help you we most certainly will.
Ok so now I am slightly confused... According to The debug symbols for the insider preview are available for download? Which would mean the the symbol server also has these symbols, so why does it return a symbols are invalid error? Is it possibly because the latest update to the symbols was in April and build 10130 came afterwards? (Or i think it did?)
Bumping my old thread, which I think I posted back on build 10130... I still get the DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION BSODs, which WinDBG finds nvlddmkm.sys to be the culprit (as I expected), and returns "*** Memory manager detected 48 instance(s) of page corruption, target is likely to have memory corruption." It has happened with each build of Windows 10, and each driver released so far from Nvidia for Windows 10. I posted the problem and the WinDBG results both in the WIndows 10 driver feedback thread on GeForce blog, as well as filling out a feedback form and copy/pasting the results into that. Marking thread solved as I know what the problem is, and hopefully Nvidia remedies the situation shortly.
