Windows 10: PC crashes whenever I launch games but passes stress tests

Hello !I have an issue where whenever I launch a game, my PC crashes. Sometimes it restarts, sometimes it turns off but the power button's light stays on, and I have to unplug the PC for a few seconds before I can restart it. You will find system information and event log at the end of the message.At first, I saw that these errors were linked to Gameinput in the event viewer and the problem was fixed, but now it came back. I have performed many stress tests with OCCT and they were all passed. CPU + RAM, CPU, MEMORY, 3D STANDARD, VRAM and POWER.Here are some things I have tried :- Fresh Windo

Deathloop not launching - Game Pass PC - Error code: (0x80070102)

Tried all of these and no fix, Deathloop doesn't launch, stuck on the splash screen with "Launching game" and then just goes away, no error code anymore. Every other game pass game I play works, I even downloaded some more games to test; single player games, online only multiplayer games, all work except for Deathloop.

Honestly, I've spent more time trying to fix the issue than I'll probably spend playing the game, which is sad when it's clearly an issue with Xbox Game Pass and it's Deathloop version.

I'm just going to play the PS5 version on Playstation Plus Extra since it actually works.

I suggest pushing this up the chain as the "fixes" you gave me where just further proof of how busted Game Pass for PC is and that people have to do ridiculous things like changing time/date of your system and that nowhere is there an official statement or fix from Microsoft, all the ways around the spaghetti code of Game Pass is found by random users trying to play their games.
