So for the last week or so I've been experiencing lots of freezes and automatic restarts, crashes and BSOD's with different messages, mostly DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (nvlddmkm.sys). The thing is these crashes only seem to occur when my laptop is being plugged into power supply and only when an application with relatively higher consumption is being run. When I unplug the laptop and use it in battery mode, the same apps and processes that were previously causing trouble and crashing the computer now work completely fine with no problems whatsoever, let alone crashes or bsod's.
I have already tried uninstalling and freshly reinstalling video drivers but the problems still persist.
As for any new software or hardware additions- no new software has been added before the crashes started to appear, perhaps the only mentionable thing that comes to my mind to add hardware-vise is a recently replaced laptop battery (not to brand original though), if that is of any significance. The new battery has been in use for more than a month now though and the problems only started to appear a week ago as I already mentioned.
I'm running Windows 10 on HP elitebook 8760w.
Any help would really be appreciated.
