Windows 10: How do I fix my laptop crashing while playing games?

I have an Asus Rog Zephyrus G14 2022 laptop, model GA402RK.For a couple months now, I have been having this issue that when I plug in my 240W charger, the game I have been playing Ghostrunner would crash after a couple minutes of play. Sometimes it would be 1-2 minutes, sometimes it would last up to 20-25 minutes on low settings. At first I though it might be a hardware issue, however, the issue was transmitted to a friend's laptop when plugging in my SSD. What also convinced me that it is not a hardware problem is that I dual booted into Linux and was able to run the same game much better,

Hi,

A corrupted profile is one of the possible reasons why your computer crashes when playing a game. For us to provide proper resolution, we need to collect more information. Kindly answer the questions below:

• When did the issue start?
• Are you having this issue with all of your games?
• What are the troubleshooting steps you have done so far?
• Have you made any changes to your computer prior to this concern?
• Were you able to play a game before without any problem while the charger is plugged in?

 

"Video_dxgkrnl_fatal_error" while playing games on my Dell G3 laptop ?

So every time I play a game after like half an hour or so, my game crashes (blue screen giving the error VIDEO DXGKRNL FATAL ERROR ), then when I relaunch the laptop my discrete GPU is gone, like missing from task manager and hidden in device manager. To fix it I have to restart my laptop then the Nvidia drivers come back and when I play my games again the same problem happens after a few minutes of playing the game. It's never happened unless I'm playing a game.
I have tried:

• reinstalling the graphics driver from NVIDIA.
  
• removing the graphics driver using DDU in safe mode and reinstalling the latest one.
  
• running sfc and dism
  
  None of the above methods helped.
  My laptop is out of warranty so don't suggest I take it to the Dell service center as they will just say to replace the motherboard, I know that and that will be like buying a new laptop.
