Hello,As the title states, whenever I play a somewhat graphically intense games that enables my GPU fans to run, my computer will crash a few minutes later while playing and causes my screen to go black and some audio cues that sound like the windows error sound.

I am forced to force shutdown my computer and turn back onOn rare occassions, upon reboot, I will lose keyboard and mouse input seconds after the reboot and have to connect a different monitor as restarting does nothi

I would suggest going back to at least the October version:

 

Black Screen, GPU Fan 100% When Playing Games

Hey all,

I have had an issue for the last few months, specifically when trying to play Rocket League, where between 5-20 minutes into playing, both of my monitors will go black and my GPU fan will kick to 100%. I can't remember if this coincided with any NVIDIA driver updates, but any subsequent updates have not helped. I am currently running the latest NVIDIA driver version (441.66).

Here are some of the troubleshooting steps that I have taken for this:

• RAM
• Ran Memtest64 overnight, ensuring that 100% RAM utilization. No errors were returned.
• Reseated the RAM, blowing out the slots to ensure no blockages.
• Tested different memory slots on the board.
• Swapped out RAM with new RAM from Microcenter, no improvements.
• RAM was originally OC'd to 3200 MHz via XMP. I turned this off and the RAM is running at stock speeds listed above.
• BIOS
• Updated BIOS to the latest version
• Performed a Clean Boot and attempted to play. Game still crashed out within the first match or so.
• GPU
• Updated all drivers
• Updated drivers, including a complete DDU uninstall/reinstall.
• Swapped power cables from the PSU
• Moved GPU to lower PCI-E slot
• Reseated the GPU, blowing out the slot after reseating
• Deleted the video driver from Control Panel
• Storage
• Ran chkdsk with no errors
• Ran defragmentation on the HDD and Trim on the SSDs
• Ran sfc /scannow with no issues
• Game Files
• Ran validator on game files (as a note here, after one crash, I ran the validator and it corrected one file. However, I played a game immediately after and crashed. Running the validator after that crash had no files fixed)
• Installed the game on all three storage devices

I have attached the BSOD logs. Please assist!

 

Desktop Window Manager uses high gpu when playing a game

The Desktop Window Manager uses high gpu (80%) when I'm playing a game. This leads to low fps and a bad experience. Even without a game running, it can still use 15% gpu. This only started happening today, and the solutions I've searched don't work. How
can I fix this?

Without a game running (browser, file explorer, discord open):



With a game running (among us + apps listed above):




I use an ASUS ZenBook with a Nvidia Geforce MX150 graphics card. My Windows version is 2004. Usually games can run 60fps no problem.
