Windows 10 issues crashes or restarts while playing games.
I upgraded from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10, everything seems fine but my computer keeps crashing or restarting during long game sessions. I've reinstalled drivers and still face issues. It never happened with Windows 8.1 on this machine. Need some assistance.

Review your Event Viewer. Verify if a Kernel-Power log appears—this often happens during programming and can sometimes seem like an issue with your computer.
Ensure the newest Nvidia drivers are installed. During setup, select the "Advanced" option, disable 3D Vision, and opt for a clean installation. Microsoft also announced today its Cumulative Upgrade 3, a major update delivering numerous improvements and incorporating older fixes into a single package—similar to mini-service packs but also containing prior ones. Verify your Windows is fully updated before proceeding.
