HELP!!! Random Reboots

[AlStarTuck]

First off, the specs.

Asus RTX 3060 

Ryzen 5 5600x 

Samsung 970 Evo SSD 1TB

Unknown John Doe Hard-drive 2TB

2×8 Corsair Vengeance Pro ddr4 

On a Rog Strix B550-F Gaming board

 

Right, so I can start up the computer fine and watch YouTube, Hulu or Hbo max fine. I can only play siege (R6) in training mode. The board will crash if I launch Apex Legends. A little red light abruptly comes on and the restart process begins. We originally thought it was because my old pre-built had an illegitimate version of windows that he stole from our school. But I've bought my own product key now, implemented that annnnnd it still crashes...i honestly dont what to do and i miss streaming with the bois, can anyone please help?

rather than focusing on the Windows Key try to troubleshoot the hardware. for starters, check your powersupply

He pirated our old high-schools windows office for his pre-built (my old system) i thought i could use the windows from my old system so i put in my old hard drive, and found out that the windows wasn't legit, ive since then bought my own product key but i still cant get my games playing properly
