Once the game starts and I play for just five minutes, my computer crashes and stops working completely. Even basic actions like pressing Ctrl+Alt+Delete to open Task Manager cause the whole system to freeze. This problem didn’t occur recently, so I’m wondering if others are experiencing the same issue or if there’s a solution I can try.

The latest update was released recently. Did you add any new software in the last few days? Share your system details so I can assist further.

The update was released roughly two weeks ago. My hardware isn’t ideal—i5-4690k, 16GB DDR3 RAM, GTX 1660 Super—but it performed perfectly at around 100 FPS before. I checked the game files, refreshed drivers, and reinstalled the installer, but the issue persists. It doesn’t affect any of my friends, and since I upgraded Windows I cleared my SSD to rule out malicious files.

Sure, I can revisit the earlier version of the game before the latest changes.

They've always been an issue with age—often something simple like RAM or a motherboard. Possibly the PSU is the culprit. How recent is the PSU? What details do you have about it (brand, model, power rating)?
