Hello my name is Milo I'll try to keep this short and sweet but detailed.
Recently for some reason any game I run on my PC crashes to desktop. It seems to have started out of no where and I really don't know what the issue is. I can't even tell if it's software or hardware related. Basically yesterday I had no issues running any games all day, later in the evening though I had Playerunknowns battlegrounds crash a few times, so I decided to run other games and test it and sure enough they would all crash varying from running for a few minutes to some crashing seconds into connecting into the game. Nothing else seems to be crashing, I can stream multiple HD videos, I can run multiple non-game related programs and am experiencing no issues. While running these games I have my task manager open and when they crash it doesn't look like anything is being strained too hard, the only exception being sometimes the disk is running at 100%, but not every time it crashes.
I thought it might be a software issue at first, especially something with windows so I tried updating all my drivers and windows itself but I was getting the same issue. I decided to wipe everything and reinstall from scratch, including windows 10 and that's exactly what I did but to no avail, I am still experiencing the same issue.
I know I don't have a lot of information but I really have no idea what started this or why it's happening, I would love to trouble shoot more so if anyone has any suggestions or can be of any help it would be highly appreciated.
