    My PC always crashes when I am not playing a Videogame that takes up "Space" like RAM and CPU and GPU usage. For example: If I play something like Fortnite the PC wont crash, cause that Game takes up kind of much Performance or "Space". But if I am just watching YouTube and have no game open in the Background. Small Games like Among Us or so also crash cause they're not performance eating ig. I already completely reset the PC multiple Times. Here's a Screenshot of when a Crash occurred they occur every about 3-30 mins, sometimes better sometimes worse. At the Time of the Crash it gets mar

  2. Lost Power, now PC won't boot. Powers on and clicks.

    I had tried both of those steps. Neither worked. I have a replacement power supply on order. Should be here on Monday. Thanks for the suggestions.

    Hope for sure it is the Power Supply without testing it and the checking the Graphics Card.

    Power plan?

    Upon checking, it seems that there's nothing wrong with your system. It is usual that you have to double-click your mouse before your monitor wakes up.

    For the meantime, we suggest changing the power plan by following the steps below:

    • Press Windows key + S.
    • Type in Power Settings.
    • On the pop-up window, choose Additional power settings.
    • Select High performance.

    After changing the power plan, we suggest that you monitor the changes made and check if that will work for you.

    Get back to us if you need further help.
