Windows 10: Fortnite Crashes My Laptop - Need Help

Hi,I am facing a serious issue when trying to launch Fortnite on my laptop. Every time I open the Epic Games Launcher and start Fortnite, it begins initializing but either freezes my laptop completely requiring a hard reset or shows a blue screen error with messages like "KERNEL_SECURITY_CHECK" or "WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT." This happens consistently before the game finishes initializing.Here are the troubleshooting steps I've tried so far without any successeleted dump filesReinstalled Fortnite and the Epic Games LauncherReinstalled WindowsUpdated all drivers, including graphics, BIOS, and chipse

Why does Fortnite, COD Warzone, and Apex Legends keep crashing?

I did everything on the list for Fortnite but Fortnite is the game that crashes the least so I can't tell if it worked or not. Apex Legends and COD Warzone crashes the most.

 

My pc freezes and crashes while playing fortnite

As the tilte suggests i have been experiencing my pc freezing and crashing while i play fortnite (havent tested any other games). To begin with ive been experiencing fortnite crashing mid game for the past week. I updated drivers windows 10 and unistalled fortnite and installed it again. After the windows update i think that the problem expanded to my pc freezing and crashing. To save you some time i have Autoruns from a previous crashing issue

 

Custom gaming pc for Fortnite...need help!!!

Honestly just about any decent machine will handle Fortnite with ease so you could probably spend half that and still build a decent machine for Fortnite.

That said, the system listed is a nice build and one that's future proof more demanding games. You might consider building it not just for Fortnite, but other stuff.

Again, any decent system can handle Fortnite so from that perspective the specs listed above is over kill. But if you want something future proof and powerful that system is a nice place to start.

Anyway the only suggestion I have (based on the assumption of an OS drive) is to get a 512gig SSD drive, and put the extra money towards a 2TB or more HDD drive for games and other data. The only real difference between putting games on an SSD drive vs. HDD drive is faster load times. The other thing you could do, though it's more money, is again, go with a 515gig SSD for the OS, and a 1TB SSD for games and data.

I just don't see an OS drive needing a 1TB SSD drive. I've got multiple SSD drives in my system with the OS drive being a 512gig SSD drive and my other SSD drives holding other data. The OS drive houses all the OS's native files and folders - Documents, Pictures, Music, Downloads, while the data that my go into those folders is placed on the other drives - Gaming, Music, Photo, Misc. Data.

My two cents.
