    Computer sometimes crashes on desktop but not in-games.


    New PC seems fine for a while but eventually the PC slows down quickly, my screen freezes, a red light sometimes turns on inside my computer and then I hard crash. Computer is still 'running' and I have to press the power button to restart it. I have yet to suffer any issues when playing a videogameso far tried TW:Warhammer II, Civilization VI, Starsector and Red Dead Redemption 2could play for hours with no crash, then go on desktop for 5-20 minutes and then crash. It only seems to happen on startupsometimes, when I'm watching Youtube, on the desktop screen or in file explorer. If I'm w

    Desktop Computer Crashes

    Hi Sumit,

    My new HP desktop computer still crashes. I tried following the steps in the link above, How to do a Disk check of System drive in Windows 10 and interpret the logs - Your Windows Guide...

    I am not able to complete or follow the task required to allow you to see what happened with the computer crash. I need an easier step such as a 1 2 3 or and a b c, to-do list in order for me to let you see my System logs.

    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?

    all games crash!

    ive watch my temps and both the cpu and gpu are within normal ranges. when it freezes it simply freezes the image and stops the sound. i must reboot to get back to windows.
