Windows 11
Computer is around 2 months old
My HP Omen laptop has crashed 4 times today. The First time I was playing Kerbal Space Program (With Shaders). It played the sound that was currently playing for a few seconds and then the screen went black. The computer turned back on automatically and it started updating. I thought nothing of it, as I have heard of this happening to people before, but it was just a minor annoyance. I went back into the game and eventually I found myself playing Halo Infinite with my friend. I played it for a while, but eventually the same thing happened, except this time, the computer didn't update. I updated my drivers, which included an update to the HP bios. I assumed that that was the issue, but alas, in a few minutes, my computer crashed again, still restarting automatically. I switched over to another game (Knightfall: A Daring Journey) and played that for around 10 minutes, assuming that the issue was with Halo and the Kerbal crash was unrelated, but then a crash happened while playing that game. and now I'm here. I also forgot to mention that I never got a blue screen of death at any point.
Some theories that I have
It's a pretty hot day, so it could be due to overheating, but the thing is that I have for sure felt my computer be much hotter than it is now.
I tried doing a virus scan with McAfee, but that came up clean.
I have checked for windows updates but the computer is up to date.
If anyone has any ideas that I could try to fix that would be great. I'm gonna go to bed for the night and shut my laptop all the way down and keep troubleshooting in the morning.
