    Computer crashes while playing games

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    I understand that how frustrating it can be when the PC crashes while playing games. I certainly appreciate your efforts taken towards resolving the issue.



    For further clarity on the issue, please respond to the questions below.



    1. Are you aware of any changes made to the PC?
    2. What is the make and model of the PC?
    3. What happens when you try to run a game?
    4. Does the PC crashes only while playing games?
    5. Do you receive any stop code or error message when the PC crashes?


    Meanwhile, I would suggest you to refer the article
    Troubleshoot blue screen errors



    In addition, you can check if Windows is up to date. Refer the article
    Keep your PC up to date     and see if that helps.



    If you receive a Blue Screen error, please share the dump files with us in order to assist you further. I have sent a private message to you, please share the dump files through the message.

    New computer keeps crashing when playing games

    Hi,

    My computer seems to crash at random when playing games.
    By looking at the crash dumps it seems like there are many different types of errors, but they are all involving ntoskrnl.exe.

    Seems to be happening most often when playing games at 4k. At first I thought it might be the power supply, but I also suspect the RAM.

    I've attached all of the dump files.

    Edit: Seems like it's occurring more and more often now. Been trying to play Rising Storm 2 this afternoon. And the computer have been crashing after just a few minutes.
