Hello, I just bought a free-to-play game called Old World. Suddenly, the games were crashing with Game Bar (that voice chat tool from Xbox). I tried uninstalling it and taking out the Xbox app using commands, but why? I don't like Microsoft deciding which games I can play without my permission. Now, before they said specifically that Game Bar was causing crashes, here is what is happening in Windows: The program crashing is named OldWorld.exe, version 2022.3.39.6927, at a certain time. The module causing the crash is ntdll.dll, version 10.0.19041.5438, at another time. A specific error code shows up: 0xc0000005. This means something went wrong in the Windows system calls when the game tried to run. The process ID is 0x30f4, and the program started from C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Old World\OldWorld.exe. It crashed because of ntdll.dll at a specific address. Here are the things I have done to fix this: I reinstalled my memory sticks, replaced my hard drive, updated graphics drivers, fixed Windows, and tried updating every single driver I could get (even keyboard updates). I also removed Game Bar and took out all Xbox stuff. After that, I uninstalled everything and Steam, then reinstalled both those programs. I even ran a few checks like SFC, DISM, turned off my GPU drivers completely, stopped overclocking, and turned off XMP settings. Now I am testing by putting back Game Bar and the Xbox app to see if some part of this is making it crash. The strange thing is that there are no crashes when playing single-player from what I found online. Any help would be very appreciated.

Could you tell me what kind of computer parts I have? Like motherboard, processor, graphics card, memory (RAM), storage drives, power supply unit, and the operating system it runs on? Any crash messages would be great too.
