Windows 10: Problem with Event 161 which leads to event 41

Hello,I was just playing Cyberpunk2077 and at one point my screen froze and nothing worked so I rebooted the pc using the power button. I opened event viewer after pc has fully booted it said my pc had an error which was "Event 161 - Dump file creation failed due to error during dump creation" after this error occurring twice the system encountered Event 41 Kernel Power. I tried "sfc /scannow" and it said no errors/corrupted files were found.I also tried "DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /RestoreHealth"I haven't received a Event 41 Kernel Power crash first entire year I think, would this just b

BSOD, event 161 and 41

My computer will randomly restart like once a month or so and the event ids when it does so are 161 and 41. 161 just says that the dump file failed due to an error and 41 says that it restarted without shutting down.

When it restarts there is usually only a Google chrome browser open or I just opened a new tab. I can play FPS games for hours but every once in a blue moon it randomly restart with these errors when the computer isn't under any type of load.

A year ago I had these same issues and eventually my computer would crash everytime I tried to turn it on. I ended up having to do a fresh install of windows on my computer but now the issue is back. I'd like to avoid that but don't keep any important files on my computer.

I have a Lenovo Legion Y520 and would really like this fixed. Keep in mind this issue seems to happen randomly so with any "fix" it may take a month or two to see if it actually worked or not.

 

event 41

Hello,

The kernel power event ID 41 error occurs when the computer is shut down, or it restarts unexpectedly. Having said that, we highly suggest performing the troubleshooting steps in this article:

System Rebooting - Event ID 41 & Event ID 161

Hello,

My system has started rebooting without BSOD randomly, but usually when playing Shadow of the Tomb Raider or other programs that have the PC under load. Today, it did it when trying to open a system information viewer program when nothing else was running.

The CPU and other components are within proper thermal limits, I've tested memory multiple times with no faults, tested all drives, and ran the DISM tool and SFC with no errors reported. The machine was built a few months ago but the power supply is from
a previous build (2015). I suspect it may be the cause.

There is little information in the Event Viewer but seems to consistently contain the 2 problems at time of reboot:

Error

Source: volmgr

Event ID: 161

Critical

Source: Kernal-Power

Event ID 41

Please let me know what additional information you need to troubleshoot this problem.

Thank you!
