    How do I stop my PC randomly restarting in the middle of active use?


    My computer has been randomly restarting in the middle of normal use, just scrolling through a trusted website, or watching videos on youtube, etc. This happens even when the only thing open on my computer is my web browser, and at random intervals, between fifteen minute to an hour, give or take. Most notably, and very oddly, in my opinion, it does not happen when I have Final Fantasy XIV open, which I would think would put the computer under more stress, or be a leading cause of the issue happening I even have it open right now so I don't get restarted in the middle of writing this. I don'

    PC restarts randomly.

    My PC reboot randomly... I already formatted the pc, the temperature is not so high and even so it restarts on its own.

    This weekend, for exemple, I played euro truck simulator 2 all day, while whatching stream and it was all good. Today I also did the same thing, but when I was change the game to Battlerite, my PC rebooted in the middle of a match.

    Last week I played Dragon age inquisition for 7 hours. When I stopped playing and started watching stream, it also rebooted

    Also last week, I was downloading dark souls and the computer restarted, it was not doing anything at the moment besides to download dark souls.

    I do not know what might be causing this problem, can you help me?

    Thanks for the collaboration,

    .

    PC Randomly Restarting after installing new Ram!

    Tried your suggestions, but still had a restart! Also ran memtest overnight (13 hours according to memtest) and had no errors! Also ran Passmark Burn in test for a couple hours testing everything and had no errors or restart. Could fitting the new ram have triggered something to go bad like my mobo or psu?

    Also, I did the chkdsk C: /F /R but it didn't do anything.

    It got stuck at 21% every single time and when ever I restart my PC it constantly starts scanning. Not sure how to stop it.
