    Possible malware attack, shutting PC while playing video file.


    Hello,

    I have been using Asus X542UN windows 10. Recently, my PC keeps getting shut while playing any kind of video. Isuspected the problem was a battery issue initially. I ran hardware diagnostics and other battery diagnostics, but everything came okay or normal and showed that my battery was okay and any problems I was having was not anything related to hardware as I could run my PC smoothly even with heavy duty software like MATLAB.


    I updated the drivers and other associated softwares. My all softwares were up to date,ran defender full scan and offline scan. I ran scan with Microsoft safety scanner and found nothing. I had a virus Ramnit attack in March but defender took successful action against those.


    Then I downloaded Media creation tool and reinstalled windows 10 keeping all the files and apps intact.


    Now, once I installed video drivers, problems seemed to be solved and then continued afterwards.
    after I reinstalled windows, problems seemed to be solved, but then again continued afterwards.


    I am certain it is not a hardware problem, but what problems may be the cause ?

    If it is a malware attack, how to successfully remove it?

    :)

    Windows 10 shuts down while playing videos for about 20 minutes

    This problem started about a month ago. Windows does a hard shut down after playing videos for more than 20 minutes. It does matter what video format or whether I am playing back from a saved file on my PC or streaming.

    I have an AMD A8 6410 processor with an integrated AMD Radeon R5 graphics card

    I have run malware and virus scans and found nothing.

    I have updated Adobe.

    I have updated Java.

    I have updated the video driver.

    Any suggestions for next steps?
