    When i m using a game with high CPU my internet connection stopped working

    Hi,

    The services that run when you play games may be interfering with the network services on the computer, resulting to this problem. To have a better idea about the cause of this, kindly answer the following:

    • Are you playing web-based games when this issue happens?
    • What error message do you get when you lose the network connection?

    We suggest you run the Network Adapter troubleshooter in Control Panel to identify what causes the problem. It may also fix the issue since Windows troubleshooters are designed to correct the problems they find on the system. Follow these steps to run the
    suggested tool:

    • Click on Start.
    • Type Troubleshooting then press Enter.
    • On the left panel, click on View all.
    • Choose Network Adapter and allow the troubleshooter to run.

    Let us know if it finds anything.

    We're here if you need additional assistance.

    Hi Jessica,

    There can be many causes for High CPU usage. However, before I can give you troubleshooting steps, I'd like to know more information about this issue. Please answer these questions below:

    • When did the issue start to happen?
    • What is the current build and version of your Windows 10 device? This
      article
      can help you get this information.
    • Do you have third-party antivirus software installed on your device?
    • Can you give me an example of the games that you play?

    I'll be waiting for your updates.
