Windows 10: dxgkrnl.sys crash

I've been having issues lately when playing graphics intensive games. My graphics output will freeze, my audio begins to stutter, and I can't interact with my computer at all. After a minute or so, I hear a loud beep through my headphones that lasts about 3 seconds. Then my computer restarts. No blue crash screen, just acts like a normal restart. BlueScreenView says that the crashes are being caused by driver "dxgkrnl.sys". I'm too illiterate to know what this means, and googling isn't helping at all. Anyone have a solution?

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?

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.

 

Windows 10 it crashes the sys

Windows 10 crashes my sys at the 32% install. After reinstalling Windows 8.1 I have to disable auto new device install or the sys will crash
