    I have received the following Critical error in Event Viewer: The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. This error could be caused if the system stopped responding, crashed, or lost power unexpectedly.My PC restarted with no error no BSOD no message. If someone can help me identify the cause? If I could provide more information needed to troubleshoot the cause please let me know.

    :)

    Hi

    I have been having a problem with my system restarting randomly

    in event viewer the event was as stated

    The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. This error could be caused if the system stopped responding, crashed, or lost power unexpectedly.

    Kernel-Power 41

    Event viewer also tells me the reason as well

    Connectivity state in standby: Disconnected, Reason: NIC compliance Kernel-Power 172

    Connectivity state in standby: Disconnected, Reason: NIC compliance

    Hello

    I have been playing a game and sometimes when loading in my computer will BSOD and shut down unexpectedly. I have tried updating graphics drivers, using sfc /scannow for corrupted files, and running the windows memory diagnostic tool. I am now looking at the event manager and it says there was a critical error that says "The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. This error could be caused if the system stopped responding, crashed, or lost power unexpectedly"

    The event ID for this is 41

    That is then followed by an information notification that says

    "Connectivity state in standby: Disconnected, Reason: NIC compliance"

    I have no idea

    Thanks

    Hi all,

    I have been having a problem with my system just randomly rebooting on its own. There was no blue screen or any signs before the reboots.

    I noticed that it reboots usually during I'm gaming or right after I closed the game.

    I have tried some proposed solutions like update drivers, disable C-State and such but to no effect.

    I have noticed an event popping out every time before the reboot:

    Connectivity state in standby: Disconnected, Reason: NIC compliance

    but I have no idea that that means

    Here are the system information you might want:

    Event log for the crash: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1gbnoNToCCW7BPKRTyLj3N0P9l03l3yvN/view?usp=sharing

    System information: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1CKUHsdTQ5t6f7jXEIn2YMiHM-tWO9WXg/view?usp=sharing

    Hopefully I have given enough information, look forward to your replies!

    many thanks,
