Windows 10: Whenever I'm playing a game on Steam, games freeze from time to time and my keyboard inputs...

I always keep my Windows up to date, and graphics driver updated, and make sure the games I play can run on my laptop. Is this a software issue with Windows 11 or is it just my laptop? I have an HP Laptop PC 15s-fq2000 2D118AV.

Game crashing all the time / PC freezes sometimes

Since about a month I have the problem that a game (Grand Theft Auto V) is crashing all the time. Sometimes the complete PC freezes too so that it displays the old image e.g. a few minutes ago (completely unresponsive, only restarting the PC helps). The time is not predictable, when it crashes. At one time it crashes after five minutes, another time it crashes after half an hour. But one thing is sure - it will crash.

I have contacted the Rockstar Support and they say they can't help me anymore. Things I did asked by the Rockstar Support:

• reinstalled the game and Social Club multiple times
  
• deleted game files in AppData/Local/Rockstar Games/GTA V and Documents\Rockstar Games\Social Club
  
• deleted C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Grand Theft Auto V\GTAVLauncher.exe and restored via Steam option Verify integrity of game files
  
• DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth and sfc /scannow multiple times
  
• uninstalled another app, which should be responsible for network timeouts/blocking
  
• switching to story mode/second character
  
• submitted the export of msinfo32 including crash reports to the support
  
• changed firewall settings
  

Things I tried myself:

• played in Safe Mode
  
• changed graphics settings
  
• removed OC
  
• updated to latest Nvidia driver (436.15)
  
• updated Windows 10
  
• checked the event log, but there is no entry
  
• executed memtest86 without problems
  
• made a stress test with FurMark without problems
  

I don't have expierenced similar problems in other games/apps.

System configuration:

• i5-6600K
  
• 16 GB RAM
  
• Nvidia GeForce GTX 780
  

Temperature is always OK.

Launcher.log from GTA V writes something like:

How can I find the cause of this error?

 

Steam games not launching on Windows 10


Hi all,

I'm having a problem when I try to launch Steam games, as whatever game I try to launch doesn't actually launch. A message comes up about the game "preparing to launch" but then nothing after that happens. Some games give me an error saying Steam is not running at all, whereas others just do nothing.

I've already completed all the troubleshooting steps on Steam's website but none of them have actually fixed it. The only temporary fix that works is restarting Steam, but this becomes very annoying when I have to do it multiple times a day every time I want to play a game.

Any help on this problem is greatly appreciated - thanks
