PC shuted down while saving game

[Agris]

Hello!

 

I was playing Farming Simulator 2017 just now, and while I went grabbing by food I saw that my pc has shuted down [and restarting]. Lately I've seen that it saves the game longer than usual. Is it normal? How could I see the cause of the restart, or is there a way. I own a Dell Inspiron 15 7559.

 

Thanks

download BlueScreenView and check if there are any BSOD memory dumps.

 

next, check the windows event viewer to see what transpired before it shut down (should be time stamped, so after you left, but before you got back).

 

You can also check Crystal Disk Info on the health of the drive. it may be failing.

That's a BSOD from July 2016.

 

what failed was a DirectX graphics kernel. have you updated your graphics driver recently?

If you mean the DirectX no, but if the graphics card yes .

install and run DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller) and re-install the latest driver update. make sure you have the updated driver downloaded BEFORE you DDU. also try not to nuke the windows default driver... otherwise you wont output anything.
