Hey all. I'm having an issue where my computer will suddenly shut off completely while I'm loading a game or playing. The computer then starts back up on its own. I turned off automatic restart to see if I could get a crash/ error code but it still shuts down and boots itself back up.
In the event viewer, each crash is logged as a critical error (ID 41). Source is Kernel-Power.
I use CPUID HWMonitor, and my CPU/ GPU temps are fairly stable and low so I don't believe that overheating is causing these shutdowns.
Just trying to figure out what the cause of the issue is so I don't replace unnecessary parts. PSU is 6+ years old, same with RAM and MOBO. Have latest graphics drivers installed, and most recent BIOS (which was released in like 2015 so maybe I just need an upgrade).
The issue is especially pronounced when trying to play Warframe, more than other games for sure. So much so that if I tab out of it while it loads, and then tab back in my computer will shut off immediately. I can usually play other games for a short while until it shuts off.
Thanks for your help
