I've had this problem for a few months now and have been trying to pinpoint the source. My PC restarts in the middle of gaming or streaming video. No warning, and no explanation or errors when windows 10 boots again. It happens fairly infrequently (every other day or so) so it's been hard to pinpoint. I've tried 2 different PSUs and 2 different GPUs, and I think I've narrowed the problem to the hard drive. The motherboard is only 5 months old or so, and a clean windows install was done when I got it.
One time when starting my PC, the DMI pool verification test failed and windows didn't load. I restarted my PC and it worked fine, but that led me to believe the hard drive was failing (It's also fairly old, 4-5 years).
CHKDSK gives no errors however, so I'm wondering if the problem really is the hard drive.
