Game play is experiencing instability, resulting in crashes without any reported errors.
Hello,
I’ve been experiencing frequent game crashes recently, with the problems occurring sporadically during gameplay – typically lasting 10-30 minutes. After this period, the games will suddenly close and return me to my desktop. Occasionally, I also receive a Blue Screen of Death (BSOD).

The two Blue Screen Stop Codes I’ve encountered are:
Kernel_Security_Check_Failure
irql_not_less_or_equal

I’ve already attempted several troubleshooting steps without success:
Reinstalling Rust
Verifying game file integrity
Reinstalling Windows 10
Updating Windows 10
Removing unnecessary files from my SSD to increase available space
Running the memory diagnostic tool (No errors detected)
Scanning with Malwarebytes (No issues found)
Disconnecting USB devices (keyboard, monitors, microphone) from my computer
Updating graphics drivers
Updating various other drivers
Uninstalling unused programs
Updating Steam
Running the game in both windowed and fullscreen modes
Checking Windows Defender settings and adding Rust to the exclusion list
Updating network drivers
Running sfc /scannow (One corrupted file repaired)
Executing verifier.exe /standard /all (No issues found)
I have previously resolved this issue by disabling Intel Speedstep in my system BIOS. I re-entered the BIOS and have confirmed that this feature remains disabled.
I would greatly appreciate any further advice or suggestions you can offer!
