Windows 10: Windows 10 keeps crashing - need help to identify what is going wrong!

I've got something to exercise the brain for anyone who is bored isolating! Would much appreciate any input as this has been happening for about a year now --- randomly, Windows 10 will crash, and nothing is displayed on the monitor - seems pretty standard BUT what's interesting:

a) Plex Media Server still functions as normal - i.e. Can access on WiFi or remotely from the impacted PC running the server, stream content fine...

b) Chrome Remote Desktop can no longer connect to the impacted PC - it shows as offline.

c) Monitors, Mice and Keyboard are all disrupted, but the PC continues to run, not showing any BSOD - simply going 'dark'

d) This can occur between a couple hours to a week of continuous runtime - whether I'm actively using the PC or if it's sitting idle...

e) I just discovered that a Minecraft server running on the impacted PC is also no longer available... sorry sis!



It just seems all so random, and of course I could (and almost have) spend years on Google trying to figure out what is causing most things - but not everything - to stop functioning??

Have tried reinstalling graphics drivers, resetting Windows - so it could be a driver problem, or worst case hardware - but I'm stumped of what would need to be replaced since it still serves Plex content!

Some details of build: i7 4820K, Nvidia 980 Ti, (Multiple monitors) - not sure what else is relevant?



Any tips on how to troubleshoot this would be amazing!

Windows 10 keeps crashing

Hi,

There are many possible reasons why the computer will keeps on crashing. One of which is missing or corrupted system files. For us to further isolate the issue, we suggest answering the following questions:

• What exactly are you accessing/doing when the computer crashes?
• Were you still able to login to the computer after it happens?
• Can you send us a screenshot of the error messages or mini dump that you've received?

In the meantime, if you're seeing a blue screen when the computer crashes, we suggest following the steps on this article:
Troubleshoot blue screen errors. Kindly choose the appropriate answer to the category
"When did you get the error?".

We'll wait for your response on this matter.

Increase the window size step by step and watch your vga temps permanently.
What happens?
If it crashes, run at stock speeds as suggested before and retry.

P.S.: When your system locks, does the display signal turn off after a time?
Stuttering sound or no sound at all when freezing?
