Windows 10: PC randomly restarts in games giving event kernel-power 41 63.

Been happening since December. Clean windows install performed. Tested all hardware components multiple times with success each time. Updated to latest BIOS. By process of elimination, I upgraded to a new PSU with more wattage. Nothing has helped. Lowering the settings in the games helps reduce restarts but not completely. Even games that my PC is well above on spec requirements have issues.PC Specs:OS Windows 11 Home, Version 10.0.26100CPU AMD Ryzen 7 5800X 8-Core Processor, 3801 MHz, 8 Cores, 16 Logical Processors GPU NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 RAM 32 Gigs DDR4 HyperX Fury 4x8 sticks

Kernel-Power event id 41. BugcheckCode 0

Hello,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

In-order to get more clarity on this issue and to assist you with appropriate troubleshooting steps, reply with answers to the below questions:

1. Are you aware of any changes made on your PC, prior to this issue?
   
2. Is this issue specific while playing a particular game?
   
3. Which edition of Windows are you currently using?
   

A Kernel Power Event 41 can occur in the following scenarios.

Scenario 1: The computer restarts, and there is a Stop error BugcheckCode in the event data.

Scenario 2: The computer is shut down by pressing and holding the power button.

Scenario 3: The system randomly restarts and no Stop error BugcheckCode is listed, or the computer is completely unresponsive (hard hang).

I suggest you refer the article on Kernel
Power Event ID 41 and follow the steps for the scenario that is causing this error on your PC.

Additionally, you can refer the article on Windows

and check if that helps.
