How full is your hard drive?

What is your RAM and CPU usage? (Task Manager > Resource Monitor)

Is this issue recurring or has it just happened the once?

If it happened the one time then all is good. Post here if it happens again.

Alright, just thought what could cause it.. was really random o,O I guess ill start to worry if it happens again ^^ Thanks

it might not happen again, it probably was some rare error on the memory side.

Adobe Flash Hardware acceleration may be the root cause of the crash

Do you have windows 7? 8? 10? It does this to me when I try installing drivers or watch twitch on windows 10, cause, yeah. It's not the final version. I was freaking out cause I was missing the wan show.

I use a Msi gtx 970 card.

that's a bummer, it's tough to trace which component it's coming from but it's most likely coming from the gpu's VRAM

Its ONLY happening while watching twitch, not ever while gaming etc.
