    Hi Team,I've got Lenovo Ideapad Gaming 3. I'm playing non steam games like Valorant, and the it minimizes while launching the game itself. It also happens in the mid-game, it will randomly go to the desktop screen and it'd take 2-3 seconds to get back on the game screen.Laptop Ideapad Gaming 3Windows 10Ryzen 7 4800h -- 8cores1650 Ti 4gb gpu16gb ramTried to search some solutions online but I don't wanna mess with some system setting as I've only got this laptop for a couple of weeks.Thanks.PS: I'm running the latest driver for my GPU.

  2. Launching games

    Hi Wesley,

    Windows 10 is gamer-friendly by design. If an issue like being unable to launch a game happens, it can be caused by outdated display driver or other factors that cause conflict when launching the app. For us to better assist you, we'd like to ask for additional
    information. Please answer the following:

    • What build and version of Windows 10 are you using?
    • Are you getting an error message when launching the game?
    • Have you made any changes to the settings or installed updates prior to this issue?
    • What troubleshooting steps have you tried so far?
    • What specific games are you having issues with?

    We will wait for your response.

    BSOD Mid R6S game

    I got the bluescreen mid r6s game and it appears to have been caused by ntkrnlmp.exe.

    I would appreciate if somebody would give me some suggestions on how to fix this.

    I can't launch games

    Hi,

    There are several factors that we have to take into consideration when troubleshooting issues with launching games on Windows 10. Here's a list of the possible reasons:

    • An outdated game version
    • Outdated Windows 10 OS
    • Corrupted game data
    • Software conflicts
    For us to determine the root cause of this issue, kindly answer the following questions:

    • What are the games affected?
    • Are you using the physical copy or the digital version of the games? If you're using the digital version, may we know where did you download the games?
    • Are you encountering this issue when launching the games online or offline?
    If you've downloaded the games from the Windows Store, we recommend running the Windows apps troubleshooter. Click this
