Could be:
Hardware Failure.
PSU
GPU
Over Heating
Fluke
Loose Connection
Not enough space on drives
Improper driveers

Let's see if a specy report shows anything otherwise we will be guessing.

Do not forget to post the make and model of the PSU if this is a desktop.

Download then run Speccy (free) and post the resultant url for us, details here, this will provide us with information about your computer hardware + any software that you have installed that may explain the present issue/s.

Like I stated may have been a fluke on time thing how is the system running since then?
Somethings that you can try and check.

Go through the system and make sute that they cards are reseated and same for the power and data cables. When the RAM was update, something may have been jarred.

Are the keyboard and mouse wires (usb/ps2) or wireless.
Swapped batteries.

Let's try a Clean Boot and see what happens.

How to perform a clean boot in Windows - Microsoft Support

Describes how to use the clean boot process to troubleshoot a problem in Windows 8.1, Windows 8, Windows 7, or Windows Vista.

support.microsoft.com

Showing
Windows 10 Pro 64-bit
Computer type: Desktop
Installation Date: 1/22/2023 9:48:54 PM
Did you do the install and or was this preinstalled.
Did you install the chipset first then the drivers in the proper order?

Never allow Windows and or some third-party programs retrieve drivers for you they usually get it wrong and or using hacked ones.

Disable the RAM over clocking (turn off the XMP) and see if that helps.

Power Profile
Active power scheme: Ultimate Performance
Set to balanced and see of that helps at all.

Change the Windows Power Plan to Balanced, Ultra and High Performance are a form of overclocking that is known to cause stability and overheating issues, the setting should only be used for gaming type that have a discrete GPU that needs the extra power.

You can always change it back.

CPU Chipset Driver
Chipset drivers are software instructions that tell Windows how to properly communicate and work with your motherboard and the small subsystems on it, and are based on the processor family you are able to use on that motherboard. Chipset drivers have a significant impact and play an important role in controlling the communication between different components including the hard drives, system memory, etc.

Motherboard sites make sure to follow the instruction if they have any posted.

To add another opinion for the future, I had a similar issue when putting the computer to sleep/waking it up, it was fixed by changing the surge protector that the computer was plugged into and reinstalling Windows from scratch.

If it doesn't come back I wouldn't worry about it. Otherwise Rustys advice is good to follow anyway keep the system working as well as it can.


Balanced is better for gaming unless you are on a notebook, it's a form of overclocking and can cause system instabilities/issues, from what I have seen it's not something you need to be using unless you fit that criteria.
