Crashes and Bluescreens

[Dragonforce234]

So, I decided to play a few games with my friends. I started and the game either continuously froze, crashed, or glitched out in some ways (I have started getting blue screens... I don't know what could be causing this... Alot of stuff just hasn't been opening and has been crashing, even my chrome will sometimes give an "aw snap" message.

I am on Windows 64 bit, this is not a new computer and has worked fine for the past year and a half.

 

So far Chrome/Youtube, Fortnite, Black Desert Online, and 20xx has crashed.

 

I had a friend tell me it MIGHT be a graphics card issue but I have no idea because I am not a tech genius.

 

Any help/ advice could be useful

List you system specs and go into your reliability history to get more info for us:

 

.Hit start

.Type reliability history

.Find any red or yellow warnings at the time of the crashes

.Double click on each one separately, screenshot and post what they say here.

Okay, well the first thing I'd try is a simple system restore back to before when this issue started because a driver probably just failed to update properly with windows updates or something like that, but if that doesn't fix it, try this:

 

1. Win+R and type "msinfo32" and enter.
2. After that look for entries with ACU.exe in "Software Environment\Windows Error Reporting". Look for the faulty module.

If it is Xaudio2_7.dll, then follow the following steps to play without crash.

1. Go to windows drive\Windows\System32 and look for Xaudio2_7.dll
2. Cut and paste it to desktop / rename it to something else.
