I'm sorry if this is the wrong subforum for this, since I think it's a hardware problem, but to me it looks like the tech support one.
I have an Acer Aspire 7(NH.QBFET.002) that randomly reboots. In the Event Viewer an event with ID 41 shows up every time it happens, sometimes with Bugcheck code 159 and sometimes 0.
I initially had Windows 10, did a clean install after some time and another clean install to get Windows 11, but nothing changed. It can be fine for a month or more, or it can happen twice a day. I don't know if it's been like this since I bought it because at first I didn't put too much focus on the fact that I had to login again. I know I'm dumb. The laptop is now a bit more than an year old and probably did this for the majority of its life. After a week of usage I added a stick of RAM, disconnecting the battery before doing so. I'm 100% sure that it happens when plugged in, but I'm not sure if it happens when on battery, since I usually use it plugged in. Should I check anything or just remove the new RAM stick and RMA it? Any tips for troubleshooting?
