Question How do I see what processes are running in the background by the second?

My GPU is failing to load WoW within a special circumstance. Every time it fails, my mouse cursor changes to an hourglass and it's about a 50% chance if WoW will fail to work or not. I'd like to figure out what it's trying to run at that instant so I can address my problem. Is there a Windows 10 tool that I can use to see the history or live view of the processes changing behind the scenes? I've tried to use Task Manager but nothing is changing.

look at process explorer. it is a supercharged task manager from MS. it can often show what is missed by task manager.
