Windows 10: Frequent app crashes new computer Windows 11

I bought a Dell Computer with Windows 11 installed on it in November 2023. It was fine until around February 2024 when a lot of my apps started crashing constantly. It's gotten so bad, I'm unable to get much work done. Here's a short list of what crashes and what I'm doing when it does:Facebook using Chrome AND Edge browsers - crashes and needs reloading repeatedly to where I give up; this happens whether I'm just opening the URL, clicking to post, or just does it if the browser is open in the background while I'm checking email or have walked away for a momentThunderbird email app crashes eve

all games crash!

I suggest you run rthdribl > http://www.daionet.gr.jp/~masa/archives/rthdribl_1_2.zip
Increase the window size step by step and watch your vga temps permanently.
What happens?
If it crashes, run at stock speeds as suggested before and retry.

P.S.: When your system locks, does the display signal turn off after a time?
Stuttering sound or no sound at all when freezing?
What X1800XT model do you own exactly?

 

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK
