Assisted my cousin in setting up her initial PC. Recently, it keeps restarting during Fortnite gameplay, either at launch or in the middle of the match. Other games function normally. I've checked driver updates, CPU slots, Windows updates, and disabled auto-restart settings, but the issue persists. The BIOS update didn't appear on the USB even though it's listed after copying, and it doesn't show up in the BIOS menu. Specs include a Ryzen 5 5600X, MSI B450 Tomahawk Max RAM, Vengeance LPX 2x8GB, 3200MHz, Seagate 2TB drive, RTX 3060, Corsair 80+ Gold power supply.

The Bios doesn't recognize exFAT, convert the flash drive to Fat32 or NTFS. What about performance when temperatures rise?

It's set up for Fat32, but I also tried NTFS. Temperatures are within normal ranges. GPU runs at 30°C when idle, 60-70°C during games, CPU stays around 35-45°C at idle, 60-70°C while gaming.

You're experiencing a problem where the PC restarts upon launching games like MW2 or League. The thermal readings look normal, and temperatures stay below 67°C. You've tried all possible solutions without success. Your hardware specs are listed as well.
