Windows 10: Random restarts

Version 20H2(OS Build 19042.685)
My PC would randomly restart whether it is in idle, playing games, or watching videos on Youtube.
I checked the Event viewer and it would give me bug check code for 126 (0x7E in hex), which relates to SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED

Any help would be appreciated

:)

 

random restarts

Hi,

If a Windows computer random restarts, the device usually have some damaged system components. For us to provide an accurate solution, we would need you to answer the following questions:

• Which build, version and edition of Windows is installed on your computer?
• What changes have you made to the device before this issue occurred?
• What troubleshooting steps was already performed to your laptop?

In the meantime, it will be best to make sure that the latest update of Windows is installed on your device. If the same issue happens after installing Windows Update, we suggest running the power troubleshooter. To do so, follow these steps:

• Open the Control Panel.
• Using the search bar at the upper-right corner, type troubleshooting.
• From the search results, click on Troubleshooting and then select System and Security.
  
• Click on Power and then follow the prompts to successfully run the tool.

We are looking forward to your response.
