Yo! So for a month I have had a total of 4 freezes on my computer. It always happens during load (gaming). The freeze consists of everything literally freezing exactly in place and nothing else happening. The fans keep spinning as normal, pc keeps running. Nothing happens everything is just froozen. The 3 first times this happended i was able to just unplug the cable and then start up the PC again. But now the 4th time the pc will not start up again after I unplugged the cable. It tried to start for 10sec, red light on CPU all time (on mobo), then after 10 sec it shuts off and restarts the process. The PSU is tested and the computer does not work with another one. Unplugging GPU does not work. So my thoughts is that this has something to do with BIOS and maybe a corrupt socket firmware. I tried CMOS reset but it does absolutely nothing. I did a update using the Intel ME update tool somewhere around when this issue began, maybe it could be related? If anyone has any ideas or is experiencing anything similar I would really appreciate all help!

Hello, sience I built my pc I have been experiencing freezes and lags although I have a good cooler for my cpu, and a decent gpu and cpu. I have tried swapping the ram, and it fixed the problem a little bit, I have thoughts that it might be my vertical gpu mount but I want to know first what the issue can be. I have'nt experienced a BSOD but after my pc has been on for a while (can change from time to time how long it takes until it does that) I also have a pretty reliable ssd that have good reviews and all my drivers are up to date too. The thing I'm a bit worried about is that my ram rgb is lagging when my pc is on heavy (but not that heavy) load, could it be the Icue software that causes this freezing and lag? Could it be the power outlet?

Ok, this started to happened when I installed a new 2tb m.2 but here's the thing, it works. hold my data/ games and it runs them. I can be running heavy games on my computer without a problem for hours, BUT let's say I just leave my computer on just the main wallpaper or ANYTHING ELSE. It will soft lock by losing internet and I can't open app/ files or restart it. I must shut it down by holding the main power button. Sometimes I know when the crash is going to happened. My audio in my headset will start crackling a little or cut off completely. One day I was able to get task manager open before it hit. And it showed that my D and F drives we both at 100% (my D and F are hard drives). But here's the kicker, when I do that test a couple of more time my C or G drive will be at 100% (C and G are m.2s). so I don't know what's going there. Also side note, I some how lost the ability to connect to my 5g wifi. I really don't know if that's a sign for some thing but it's something. Also as of today I checked my bios and it say my 2 8gb ddr5 ram speed has lower it's stock speed, was 6000mhz now it's on 4800mhz. I don't overclock my ram. And let me tell you every thing I have done to try to fix 1. Check/ update driver 2. Done like 20 different commands on command system to check health and errors on the storage 3. Re installed Windows 4. Remove the new m.2 5. Remove one of my ram stick 6. Doing something to the modem and router All of these didn't work I am going to blow my brains out. I need this computer for school surprisingly and I spent to much money for it to give up Please help me, I'm a lost in this soft lock computer hell. Ryzen 5 7600x

Hello I upgraded my PC, Motherboard asus crosshair hero x670e Amd 7800x3d 32 gbs of ddr5 3080ti Windows is on nvme The pc stutters so hard randomly even when iam just running youtube . It stutters and the audio starts cutting out and video will buffer and the whole pc will freeze then get back to normal , it happen in alot of different ways

I'm trying to play Doom Infinite (GZDoom wad running off Doom 2) on a 64bit Ubuntu 22.04 system (and I've switched on Wayland). At random intervals I'm getting my screens both freezing and sometimes it will fix itself after a bit and I'll see these log10 singularity errors in the console. Sometimes it will crash and I can see the log. But most of the time it will just sit there frozen for a long time and I'll have to REISUB reboot my laptop. While frozen I can still hear videos running in the background, I can hear they are switching to the next video in the autoplay youtube queue so even the internet still works. But Discord will crash almost immediately. I'm pretty new at linux and not having this issue on my PC. I've checked the WADs discord and there was only one other mention of log10 singularity errors but they said it's odd that its freezing my computer. I've ran the ubuntu software autoupdater and am pretty sure that includes the GPU driver being up to date. I've tried fullscreen, windowed, using recommended settings. What can I do to troubleshoot?

Hi, I recently bought the F1 23 game. When I launch the game, I can usually play for about 5 min. before my pc hangs and my 2 displays disconnect. When I look at event viewer, I don't see anything that could cause this problem. It also happened once when I was reading a Word document, but I don't know if this is the same issue. I have already tried reinstalling the game, checking the integrity of the game files, updating my bios and reinstalling windows and all graphics drivers. Nothing seems to work. Here are the specs of my pc: AMD Ryzen 5 3600 xt AMD Radeon RX5700xt VENGEANCE® LPX 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4 DRAM 3200MHz C18 Gigabyte B550 Gaming X V2 (rev 1.1) CoolerMaster PSU MWE Bronze 230V V2 750 For storage I also have 2 * WD blue SN570 1TB 1 1TB Toshiba hard drive (Toshiba HDWD110) and 1 1TB hard drive I had laying around (task manager says it's a WDC WD10EARS-00Y5B1) I hope somebody can help me solve this issue.

Hey all, first post hope I can get some guidance! I've recently built my first desktop and I'm incredibly happy with the result. PC booted on the first try and when I left it to sleep all seemed well. In the morning I began a Windows 10 download which froze on a black screen with half a spinning wheel. Despite what I knew about shutdowns during downloads after about three hours I figured I had no other option. After a few days of troubleshooting I've manage to boot and had some success using the computer. However, it no without fail hard freezes after 10-30 seconds upon entering the desktop. Ive checked my connections, turned it on and off, and the only thing that resets the freeze is a full shutdown (which will start a new one upon launch). After so much troubleshooting I'm a little at the end of my rope and have no clue where to start fixing. Any suggestions?

I'll try to keep this as brief as possible because all my patience with this pc is nearly gone. I feel like I've tried almost everything to no avail. The Issue: So what happens is that when playing any game and in this case I've been using the sims 4 to keep it consistent, after anywhere between 2-10 minutes (typically) or up to 2 hours (rarely) of gameplay the whole pc freezes. Meaning no inputs can be done until I'm forced to shut it off. And there are no real indicators leading up to the crash, the games run as well as they should until they stop running at all. What I've tried: I feel like I have done nearly everything except for buying a whole new PC, which is absolutely not an option. But I have replaced parts, reinstalled windows, running more than enough virus scans and troubleshooters but nothing has shed a light on what the issue could possibly be. However some things I did find were that using a different ram stick on each slot helped it run significantly longer, to the point where it I had believed that replacing the RAM was the option. But then all of that was done and yet it still freezes just the same the next time the pc is used. This led me to believe that that the storage was corrupted in some way, after all I had ran the chkdsk command on the C drive and it failed. Right after reinstalling windows on the new SSD, once again the pc ran fine! But the day after the crashes began once again. I am past the point of being frustrated, I'm sick of this but Id like to avoid a pc repair shop if possible. -Asus EVO oc edition 2060 -Corsair 650 watt power supply -Ryzen 7 5800x -500 gb solid state drive -2 tb hard drive -2 x 8 ddr4 3600 mHz ram -MSI Mag b550 tomohawk motherboard These were the specs before the replaced SSD and Ram (gskill trident 32gb) Any and all help is greatly appreciated!

Hello guys, So after I bought my computer there were no issues at all. But recently I started having issues with my entire PC just stuttering/lagging a couple minutes after launching some games. This includes issues like (at the same time) Mouse delay, audio cracking and freezes. When I open my task manager nothing is out of the ordinary. Some games I experience this frequently with are: Apex legends, Dead by Daylight, Hunt: Showdown, Brawlhalla, Rainbow Six Siege and Valorant. At first I thought it could have been an issue with games running EAC (EasyAntiCheat) but it was happening in other games as well. Looking through forums I cannot really find any problem similar to mine. I don't think my computer is the problem cause before there were no issues but maybe there is a common problem that I'm not aware of like bad drivers. If someone could help me I'd greatly appreciate it. Computer specs: RTX4090OC (Gigabyte) Ryzen 9 7950x 64GB DDR5 Corsair Dominator ASUS Crosshair 670HE 1200W Corsair PSU 4TB Seagate FireCuda SSD I also added 2 screenshots of GPU-z and CPU-z, maybe someone can find an issue I can't.

As the title says I’ve been trying to get this pc working again but nothing is working unfortunately. I'm extremely frustrated at this point. So for context this PC was built less than a year ago with no issues at all, especially none like this. But all of the sudden, after downloading the Sims 4, this pc now crashes anywhere 2-20 minutes into gameplay. The crash is odd, nothing seems to spike in msi afterburner or at least anything obvious. The game functions normally and smoothly and then the whole pc just stops. Nothing can be done and the only solution was to force it to shut down. And this same thing happens over and over again, the only thing that changes is how long it takes for it to crash. And this applies to any game now. But only if a game is running. So after many different tests for memory, graphics card and driver issues nothing has really shown an issue until recently. At this point its been frustrating, I’ve never had an issue quite like this with any PC I’ve dealt with. So today after trying the chkdsk command on the C drive, it had stopped at stage 4 and wouldn’t continue, so I decided that a clean install of windows and wiping everything else would probably do the trick. But no, using the reset feature only worked until 34ish percent and wouldn’t continue. So instead I prepared a windows install USB drive and reinstalled it that way. It seemed to have worked, pc moves even a bit quicker and all seems well. Then after reinstalling and testing Sims 4 once again it crashes after about 20 minutes of gameplay but it’s much different than what it was doing before. This crash froze for a second but then almost the whole game went black with some color here and there and weirdly colored pixels in other spots, and then eventually the whole screen turned black. Plus I heard fans spinning pretty fast in the pc before having to force shut it off. However it crashed like it did earlier once the latest graphic drivers were installed. Since then I have also tried, resetting bios settings, disabling XMP, and updating the bios to no avail. I’m unsure where to go from here, any and all advice and help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you for reading! For reference the specs are -Asus EVO oc edition 2060 -Corsair 650 watt power supply -Ryzen 7 5800x -500 gb solid state drive -2 tb hard drive -2 x 8 ddr4 3600 mHz ram -MSI Mag b550 tomohawk motherboard Please let know if there’s anything else I can do to help

Hey guys. So I lurked around the forum and online, but couldn't find a solution. For the last two years, my computer has been randomly freezing, whenever I would watch YouTube videos or download something VIA torrent. It would happen very infrequently, so it wasn't a big issue. As of recently, my computer freezes whenever I open any browser. I read online, that I could be my SSD, but it happens even if I unplug the SSD and boot of of a HDD. Gaming seems fine, no matter what the game is. Or how intensive it is. Copying files seems normal. I don't get a BSOD, no spike in cpu/ram usage, nothing. Just freezes, mouse/keyboard don't respond. Doesn't unfreeze (left it overnight). Here's what I've tried: 1. Reinstalling windows. (Clean install) 2. booting of a different hard drive 3. Reseating RAM 4. Updating all the drivers 5. Reseating everything (reassembling the PC. 6. Removing the SSD or hard drive completely, to make sure it's not one of them. 7. AV/Malwarebytes scan 8. Turning it on and off again Here are the specs: MB: Asus P8z77-v Cpu: core i3 (2130? I wanna say) Cooler: overkill cooler master PSU: cooler master 570w RAM Kingston HyperX 8gb 4GBx2 Video card: Nvidia GTX 650 SSD: 120GB Kingston 300 series (system) HDD: WD green 1 TB HDD: Hitachi 500 GB (system for testing) Everything works like a charm in safe mode (with network driver support) Haven't had a single problem. Any help would be much appreciated. Here's a picture of ResMon in a frozen state.

Hi, this is almost a new PC. Bought back in April of this year. Specs: i5 12th gen, 16 GB ram, Rtx 3060, 650 w corsair PSU, 240 gb ssd 2.5", 1 tb Western digital hdd, ant esports cab. Today I was watching a YT video and the suddenly froze with a loud bizzare buzzing sound. Everything was unresponsive even ctrl + alt + delete was not working and I had to force shutdown using power button. When I turned on the PC again, it started and then after a couple of seconds it turned off and then it automatically turned on and off and it did for like 3 to 4 times. Then I held the power button to turn off and turned on. Then monitor was showing "No signal detected" but PC seems to be on but I couldn't see. Again, I held the power button to turn off and turned on, this time it showed Windows is corrupt or something, need repairing. Then it gave Blue Screen and it stucked at 21% while recovering. It freezed at 21% for around 10 minutes then I turned off from power button again. Next time, I was able to get to desktop and I got Blue screen again. The error codes were: Stop code: DRIVER IRQL NOT LESS OR EQUAL what failed: volsnap.sys It was giving constant blue screens so I formatted and reinstalled Windows 10 on the SSD. After installing windows and reaching the desktop area, it again gave Blue Screen. Stop Code: System service exception what failed: win32kbase This was a fresh windows install and no drivers were installed, why would it give Blue Screen? I checked health status of SSD and HDD using crystal disk info and got this: HDD screenshot: https://imgur.com/B4bSsqP SSD screenshot: https://imgur.com/lds6fJX What could be causing the sudden constant freezing and blue screens even on a new fresh windows?

last night when opening any browser (opera) the PC freezes for 3 - 5 minutes, every action I make on the browser it freezes and the only way the freezing disappears is when I close the browser, I thought maybe opera is just out of date so I tried the built-in browser edge and it freezes all the same.

PC freezing after i open a game after approximately 5 minutes, only option after freezing is to reset PC via power button Specs: OS: Win 11 Pro, latest update (checked for new updates as of sep. 15th at aprox. 5 pm (GMT-3) GPU: AMD RX 580 2304sp CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5500 MB: B550M RAM: 16GB (2x8GB) 3600MHz Storage: 500GB m.2 SSD 3500r 3200w PSU: 500w 80+ bronze Situation: i Built this PC myself almost a month ago, and after some time (i think it was about yesterday night, so like 22 hours ago) games just froze after being on for approximately 5 minutes. first game i saw was Orcs must die! 3. game froze while i was adjusting the game's settings. the game just froze, and i couldn't do anything, even tho the music was still playing. i was confused, so i restarted the pc and opened the game again. same thing, but then i tried another game (wont remember which one) and it also froze. i then went to teardown, and it was fine, so i just played that. i then downloaded BG3, but didn't play it till this night, and it had the same weird bug. not sure what to do now to be honest... i downloaded latest drivers for my GPU and CPU, checked windows defender, run a few memory checking thingies i got when i googled a bit, but it wasn't verry deep. Games i tested and froze: Baldur's Gate 3, Get To The Orange Door, Orcs must die! 3, The Crew Motorfest Games i tested and DIDN'T froze: Teardown, Zelda BOTW (CEMU emulation) i wanna avoid doing a clean windows install because i would need for someone i share the OC with to make some backups, and it would be extremely inconvenient for both of us.

Hi, so I have this Dell Vostro 3405 laptop with Windows 11 (the laptop supports said OS). The laptop is like half a year old, and since maybe a couple months ago I've been dealing with this issue where the laptop suddenly dead locks (becomes completely unresponssive and I have to shut it down with power button). This mostly seems to happen with the laptop is idle (little to no CPU load) like when I'm just browsing an article or writing something. When I'm gaming or watching youtube this never happened. Hope you can help me figure out whats going on (as I said even after a clean reinstall this keeps happening) thats it, thank you in advance.

So… a few months ago I built a new, custom pc from scratch, my very first. A few weeks later, the computer had a hard freeze, meaning my inputs had no response, the only thing I could do was restart it. I thought little of this, as my drivers were not updated, ( foreshadowing), however it froze again the same day. it has now, for a while, froze at least 3 times a day, I use the computer for, at the most, 3 hours a day. No unusual ram usage, or overheating. hardware specs CPU:12400 gpu: intel arc A750 Motherboard: B760M steel legend Wi-Fi Ram: 16Gb ddr5 team group 4800 8x2 GB SSD: solidgen P44pro 512gb Case: mono tech X3 mesh Monitor: asus PB287 LCD (4k monitor) games I play civilization 6 Kerbal space program 2 ( at the lowest settings) oxygen not included

I have made several topics about this in the past. I have tried everything I can think of; Ran as admin, set core affinity, changed priority, game mode on and off, ultra low latency, used a Nvidia profile, uninstalled and reinstalled through steam, turned all over lays off, manually added the game to the Game profile on my Anti Virus, and turned off Core Isolation. The only thing I have not done yet is uninstalling the game, completely wiping it from the system the best I can and uninstalling and reinstalling steam itself. Then redownloading and installing the game all over again. I have included 4 Pictures of performance graphs during and after game play. First one happened during a freeze. The second one was also during a freeze the Third and fourth were take shortly after each other after the second picture. Additionally I just checked my CPU temp logs and during the game the Temps SOARED to ana average of 70C I have not seen this PC do this in any of the other games. I have played on it. I really don't understand why the game is not playable on my new system. My old Laptop the Dell Alienware that I originally bought and played the game on did not have any issues back then and I even booted it up and tried the game on it today and IT STILL WORKED PERFECTLY! So I have NO IDEA why my new system can't run it. The new system has not had any issues with Elden Ring (RTX on or off the laptop had issues with RTX on), Horizon Zero Dawn, Doom Eternal, Final Fantasy 7 Remake, Tales of Arise or Scarlet Nexus. I am starting to think that the game suspects it is pirated and is trying break the PC or itself. If ANYONE has ANY insights into this or something I could do to get it to work I would GREATLY appreciate it

Hello all, randomly when playing games, browsing the web, even just using discord my computer seems to freeze for about 1-10s, it disconnects everything currently connected to my pc via usb and then reconnects them and I un-freeze. If I am playing a game the game doesn't even crash, and after the 1-10s I can just continue playing like it never happened. It seems to trigger quite often when someone joins or leaves my discord channel but I think that could be just a big coincidence as that doesn't really make any sense. I've tried using event viewer to source the issue, and discovered every time I freeze I get a Kernel Event Tracing error id 28. I think this may just be due to the fact that when I freeze my peripherals disconnect then reconnect , but every time I plug in my ASTRO A50's and my Hyper X Quadcast S I get those errors. Not sure if those errors could cause the freeze in the first place though. Seems to happen about only once a day not sure if i can remember if it's happened more than once in a day and I use my computer for hours upon hours everyday. Any help appreciated been dealing with this pretty much ever since I built the PC and I can't take it anymore. My specs: GPU : Asus Strix 3080 CPU : i9 13900k MOBO : Asus z790-e RAM : Corsair Vengeance RGB DDR5 64gb 6400mhz PSU : Corsair Shift Series 1000W NVME(s) : Corsair MP 600 and Corsair MP 600 PRO XT OS : Win 10 Pro I have tried upgrading my PSU from 850w to 1000w didn't fix it. I have tried upgrading my RAM from 32gb 6000mhz to 64gb 6400mhz didn't fix it. I have tried upgrading my MOBO from asus z690e to asus z790e didn't fix it. I have tried doing a complete clean install of windows (formatting the drive it was originally installed on and reinstalling with a USB) didn't fix it. I have tried replacing the A50's and Quadcast with brand new ones, didn't fix it. I have tried going into Power Management and turning off USB Selective Suspend, also went into device manager and made every single device that had the option of not allowing the pc to turn it off unchecked. I have tried updating bios to most current one, didn't fix it. Please someone help still not resolved as of 11/10/23

Before I tell my story I will list the specs of the rig being mentioned. MOBO: ASUSTeK GL12CX CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i9-9900K @ 3.60 Mhz 8 cores GPU: Nvidia GeForce RTX 2080 Ti Disk: Samsung SSD 870 QVO 2tb Operating on Windows 10 Pro - 64 Bit 32 gbs of ddr4 Monitor: Acer XF270 H: 27 in. 1920x1080 Ok now I will begin. This computer was given to me as a gift about 3-4 months ago after my first ever gaming pc unfortunately stopped working. I have been very blessed to own such a wonderful setup HOWEVER once I had gained ownership of the PC a few weeks into it, I started running into countless issues. The first issue I would encounter was my computer freezing on me at any given moment (vague yes please keep reading) When I was using something minuscule such as youtube or reddit on chrome my pc would freeze. My initial reaction was that chrome was to blame which resulted in me switching over to edge for a little bit to see if the problem continued. To my luck it did so once again I blamed the browser and switched to Opera Gx. Without any succession and my pc still freezing I was defeated and left unable to use a web browser without the possibility of my computer crashing. When I say crashing, what happens is my monitors freeze on whatever I happened to be doing in the moment that it “freezes” and I am left unable to move my mouse, ctrl alt delete, nothing that isn’t a hard reset. Its just a still image. This originally would only occur when I had nothing opened just an idle desktop or when I had a browser open surfing the web but never when I gamed. That was short lived though and eventually my computer would freeze during my gaming sessions too. Around the time the freezes first started happening, I would spend a lot of my time playing either Valorant or RDR2. I found my computer crashing more and more when I played Valorant (the game that is less demanding of your pc’s resources) than when I would binge Red Dead. This made no sense to me that for 6+ hours I could sit on rdr2 but me launching valorant or opening a tab in opera gx or EVEN JUST BEING AFK was a no go. One thing was clear: My situation was getting worse. Now I didn’t take into shop immediately because these crashes were only about once or twice a day however in the last 2 weeks the freezes have been more and more frequent, it no longer matters what I may be doing in the moment there was always the possibility of a freeze and on top that, when I am forced to hard reset there are instances where my keyboard does not get power on bootup and no image is sent to my monitors despite the computer powering on / lighting up. This really hurts my head because it is a coinflip on whether or not my computer wants to operate on any given day the way as its intended to. This resulted in me taking my computer to my local shop. I described my situation the same way I have here in this post and after a week in the shop this was their message to me “Hardware check did not find any obvious failures. We did find some Windows errors, which we repaired, and some pending Windows updates, which we completed. We have been letting the computer run tests and videos all day and we haven't had any bluescreens or freezes. If you have anything else you'd like for us to check, please let us know. Otherwise, if you want to pick up the computer, you are more than welcome to.” So I did exactly that, ecstatic to finally have my computer back I take it home only for it to still be crashing. This led to me to believe that perhaps my apartments power output could not meet the requirements my rig needs to perform but that would not make sense because the rig / peripherals stay powered when it does freeze. These guys ran stress tests / videos for over two days straight and had zero crashes / errors but the second i take it home i’m back to square one. These guys are trustworthy and were sorry to hear Im still having trouble and I will be taking it back into shop tomorrow but wanted to post here incase anyone has had a similar problem / has any advice.

Hi Everyone, My new PC is having this issue where once it's been on and running Windows 11 for an hour or two, suddenly my mouse and keyboard won't do anything. It will continue to play music, videos, or games but my mouse and keyboard just won't work. I think the issue has to do with my SSD. I had this Samsung 2TB NVMe M.2 SSD in my old PC that I put in in the new build. My old PC was running Windows 10, so I had to do the whole Windows bootdrive and got Windows 11 running on the new PC. (The NVMe SSD is 7 months old. Used for casual gaming and programming) Are there specific drivers that I need to update? I've updated the GeForce drivers. When I transferred the card to the new PC, all I did was pull it out of the old PC and stick it straight into the new one. Was I supposed to do anything special before pulling it out or now that it's in the the build? I'll post the builds bellow. Thanks!

I have made mention about this a couple time in other posts and I have been getting a mixed bad of answers and other feed back. SO, if you have already discused this with me you don't have to stick around. For those of you that want to know, SYSTEM SPECS: CPU 13700KF Motherboard MSI MAG Z790 Tomahawk RAM 32GB (16GB X2) DDR5-6000MHz TEAMGROUP T-Force Delta GPU RTX 4070 ASUS Dual Case RAIDMAX X603 Storage WD SN770 2TB PSU Corsair RM850X Fully Modular Display(s) Gigabyte G24F2 & Dell S2318HN/NX Cooling DEEPCOOL LS720 Keyboard Logitech G512 Carbon (GX Blue) Mouse Logitech Sound Bose Headphone & Creative SBS260 Operating System Windows 11 Pro Context: So I recently have been running all my games on my new PC to see how everything is working and I have been wanting to pick up some again, namely Persona 5 Strikers. ISSUE: The game has a 60FPS cap and the average FPS I get is 55-58. That is standing completely still. If I start to move or turn the camera the frame rate drops down into the low to mid 40s and I get lots of stuttering. When I enter combat the frame rate drops further to about 30 average and I still get the stuttering. About half the time though as soon as combat starts the game freezes completely only the music plays. This locks up the entire display the game is on and the screen goes black if I try to switch the program. It also does not do anything when I use CRL+ALT+DEL and tell it to open the taskmanager. I have to hit ALT+F4 and wait for it to close the game. If I am lucky I can get a new program to open up from the Start button and unbind the monitor, but that is rare. To top it off when I was checking taskmanager during a freeze on my other monitor I saw 100% usage on about 5 of my CPU cores. Then if I can get another program to take over the usage drops right to 0%. Attempted Fixes: I have tried every thing I can think of to work with this. I tried setting the Processor Core Afinity to just the P-Cores, I used the Nvidia control panel to set the Performance to Max, and turned on Ultra Low Latency. I tried min and max graphical settings in the game and and multiple other graphical setting combinations. I tried turning off all overlays. I originally I just moved the game and save files from my Laptop to the new PC, so I uninstalled the game and re-installed it. None of this helped at all. PS: Incase you are wondering the game ran well on my Laptop about 1.5 years ago when I originally played it after it came out.

Hello, I built a new pc a couple of weeks ago so it is only at most 2 weeks old. My pc crashes occasionally just randomly when not streaming but mostly when I stream. I was previously having a blue screen problem but I have not had a blue screen problem in a couple of days so I think I did fix that problem. What happens when it crashes: I will be just playing my games or on YouTube and then all of my displays freeze (4 monitors). The audio will continue to play for about 1 minute before it starts to sound distorted. About 30s-1min after the distortion starts, the music stops. It never goes to a blue screen from what I have seen and I have to manually power it down (I use the front case button). What I have tried: Ran memory diagnostic last week and had a RAM problem. I got that replaced and thought I had fixed it but the problem still persists. Updated all drivers Tried turning off C-state after seeing a Linus video Tried different Ram profile (EXPO 1 vs EXPO 2) I asked microcenter if my PSU is enough and they assured me it is.
