I switched to Windows 11 about a year ago. A few months ago my PC started randomly crashing and rebooting, without any blue screens.

Am I the only one? Does someone know anything about this?

Pretty sure I can rule out power surges or overheating or stuff like that. There’s been no indication. The system log is empty as well, apart from Windows being annoyed that it just got restarted without any notice.

    Couple of guesses I have:

    • potential graphics driver issues
      • s: could try reinstalling/updating graphics drivers
    • Microsoft
      • s1: full system refresh via Windows reinstall (after backing up all user files)
      • s2: for beginners; Linux Mint

    hard to say what else without any additional info (or having your device in front of me to figure out what’s happening)

    • for example, did you happen to install anything or was there a recent Windows update?

      This guy has a good start. Ensure you update drivers, but also your firmware. Drivers and firmware work together so the OS can properly manipulate the hardware. BIOS/Mobo firmware but also look at graphics card.
