Windows 10: My computer is force restarting when trying to play valorant, even after re-installing...

Every time I try to run valorant it runs for a few minutes and then force restarts my laptop. I've looked at the reliability report and it says "Windows stopped working" then "Windows shut down unexpectedly". The description from "Windows stopped working" says that it rebooted from a bugcheck text in zipped folder. I didn't have this issue last year but hadn't opened the game since then.I can't open the minidump file but I have tried deleting all riot games files from my computer and re-downloading, as well as running as administrator and the same problem happens. The minidump and reliabilit

Valorant BSOD - Error Code: Page Fault In Nonpaged Area

Hi, yesterday I started getting BSOD when Trying to play Valorant, it seems to be a Memory related issue. I've tried every possible solution so far but I´d like to see if anyone can help me with this.

• When does this happen ?
  
  • When trying to play the game, during gameplay my monitors will turn almost black with high contrast and freeze for a few seconds before restarting my PC.
    
• What Code does Windows Reliability Monitor show ?
  
  • Code: 0x00000050
    
• My Dump Files:
  
  • 121522-12234-01.dmp
    

So far I´ve tried:

1. Giving vgk.sys access to everything
   
2. Setting Valorant to "Run as Administrator"
   
3. Reinstalling Valorant
   

Things I haven't checked:

1. Re inserting RAM sticks
   

EDIT: This is only happening with Valorant, no other game is giving me the same problem, so I assume re installing the Ram will not have much of an effect.

 

PC Restarts when playing Valorant

Hi AquaChris645,

Sorry, I was offline, that minidump file lists the usual driver with Valorant crashing, it is the driver on the Vanguard anti-cheat game engine cauisng that.

But that is most likely not the cause of the new problem.

Completely remove the current graphics card device driver using the widely available free DDU utility, then restart your PC and go to the support page for your PC on the manufacturer's website to download and install their recommended version of the graphics card device driver.

A slightly older version of that driver is more stable than the latest version.
