    Question My PC Keeps Restarting While Playing Games

    Also, considering the fact that my PC restarted while playing Minecraft (which I don’t use a controller for), I would say that the PS4 controller isn’t the issue here.

    Question My PC Keeps Restarting While Playing Games

    Update: I tried running MemTest86 and got absolutely zero errors. Also, I was playing Minecraft with some friends earlier and got another restart. From that experience I have come to the conclusion that high graphical games aren’t the only kind of games that can cause my PC to randomly restart...

    Question My PC Keeps Restarting While Playing Games

    I tried playing the game that normally crashes my PC (Rocket League) and Overwatch with just my keyboard and mouse and nothing ever happened. I also tried using my controller but plugged into a 2.0 USB port instead of a 3.0 and also got no crashes. That's not saying it won't cause one...

    Question My PC Keeps Restarting While Playing Games

    I have a GameStop in my town but I don't like the Xbox controller's configuration very much. Plus the PS4 controller was working just fine about a month ago. Then all of the sudden this restarting issue started. That is if the controller is even the problem.

    Question My PC Keeps Restarting While Playing Games

    If it is the controller, how would I fix the problem? Like is there a way that I can still use the controller without my PC restarting?

    Question My PC Keeps Restarting While Playing Games

    The controller is just a PS4 controller that I've connected through a USB port. I don't think PS4 controllers have drivers for Windows. I did unplug the controller just to test as after I had plugged everything else and tried it, it still restarted. When I unplugged the controller and tried it...

    Question My PC Keeps Restarting While Playing Games

    The issue with that is I have to have a controller plugged in to play the game I play. Can I keep the controller plugged in and unplug everything else?

    Question My PC Keeps Restarting While Playing Games

    My OS is Windows 10 Pro 64-bit and I have a lot of USB devices plugged into the system. I was going to mention that in the reliability history there were a load of "Windows did not shut down properly" errors.

    Does this image help with finding the issue? It is a picture of an error I found in the reliability history. There were multiple errors like this one.

    Question My PC Keeps Restarting While Playing Games

    Sorry for the late response. I thought I had fixed the problem but I guess not as it still happens. I uninstalled the graphics drivers with DDU and reinstalled them. When the problem first started my CPU was on its base clock speed. I have since overclocked it but I can lower it to its base...

    Question My PC Keeps Restarting While Playing Games

    Hi. My PC keeps restarting by itself when I am in the middle of playing games. I've checked my GPU to see if it would be overheating and it runs at 70c or below the whole time. My PSU definitely has enough wattage to supply power to the whole system and more being an 850W PSU. The only solution...
