Windows 10: Debugging Windows 11 crashes - MSFS, no BSOD, no memory dumps generated, just sudden power down

It's been weeks since I'm trying to debug crashes on my Windows 11 machine and I'd appreciate some guidance.How the crashes happen:My PC crashes only when I play the Microsoft Flight SimulatorThe PC just suddenly powers down without showing any errors - the screen goes black, I hear the fans spinning for a second, then click - the system is powered downWhat I tried so far:No memory dumps are produced, even though I enabled themI didn't see anything suspicious in the Events Log that would only happen immediately before the crashesThe System File Checker didn't find any issuesThe crashes still h

Power Kernel 41 Error, During Gaming, Possibly Software?


@storm shadow, I already explained that in post 7

There are 3 different crashes

1. A freeze crash
2. A sudden shutdown/restart crash
3. A bluescreen crash

A memory dump will only be created when a bluescreen crash occurs.
A kernel event id 41 only means an unexpected power problem has occured what happens with both a shutdown/restart and bluescreen crashes.

 

Random Shutdown Memory Dumps: Reasons?

Definitely post this in BSOD Crashes and Debugging - Windows 10 Forums. Be sure to follow the instructions in the notice at the top of the forum.





One of us will look at your dumps and see if anything indicates a cause.

 

Debugging a hanging system with no memory dump

Hi,

I'm having troubles with my Windows 10 laptop freezing when it comes out of sleep mode. I get the login screen and can move the mouse but I cannot click any buttons or type into the login box. The time also remains static and there are no entries for the time it was woken up in the event viewer.

To try and debug what might be causing it to hang I tried forcing a system crash using CTRL + SCR LK. This worked, but unfortunately Windows wasn't able to create a memory dump - it remained at 0% indefinitely. I tried forcing a system crash in a normal state to check it wasn't an issue with my setup e.g. the paging file being disabled, and can confirm it was able to create a memory dump fine in this scenario.

This means I'm am now stuck on what to try next. Does anyone have any suggestions?
