    Getting BSOD while playing games

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    I appreciate your effort on this. However, in order to get to the root cause of the issue, please reply with the following details:



    • What is the make and model of the computer?
    • Which build version of Windows 10 is installed on the computer? To check type:
      winver in the search bar on the Taskbar and hit Enter.
    • Does this issue occur only while playing a game?


    Usually, Blue Screen error occurs when there is an outdated driver installed or any in compatible hardware connected to the computer. As you have mentioned that all the drivers are updated, I suggest you to refer the troubleshooting steps in the article

    Troubleshoot blue screen errors
    and see if that helps.



    If the issue persists, I would request you to share the minidump file with us so that we can analyze it and help you with the appropriate troubleshooting steps. You can locate mini dump file in location:
    c:\windows\minidump. Please upload the files in OneDrive and share the OneDrive link.



    Please reply with the status of the issue, we will be glad to help you further.



    Regards,

    Nikhar Khare
