Hello everyone. I'm back here again with a brand new issue with my PC.
Last time I was here, I had an issue where my computer would keep BSODing on me at random times whenever I did anything (or even nothing) with my PC.
Back then, I found out that it was a hardware issue causing my PC to give me issues, more specifically my CPU, which I replaced shortly after I found the culprit, and since then everything was working fine.
But now today I have a new issue with my PC. Whenever I use any program that uses video, my PC screen and audio will randomly freeze/buzz, and then restart itself. That's it. No BSOD shows up on screen. No errors show up on the minidump, no useful messages in the Event Viewer. It just... freezes and restarts.
I have no idea what's causing this and no idea where to begin for troubling shooting. So far I have tried cleaning out my PC case, re-seating the GPU and Memory, but that's about it.
If anyone could help me with my issue, I would be grateful.
What I have done so far:
Updated my Windows 10 and windows drivers to their latest versions
Ran Windows Defender and Malewarebytes for any viruses, adware, maleware, etc.
Ran windows disk error check
ran "sfc /scannow" command twice (it found some issues and repaired them)
Properly uninstalled and reinstalled my GPU drivers using DDU
Opened up my PC case and cleaned out my PC of dust, as well as removed and re-seated my GPU and RAM sticks
