Computer Crashes On A Regular Basis

I don't know if WhoCrashed is even good enough to get the correct information. But to explain it a little more, this seems to always happen when i'm playing video games. Everything will be completely fine and then out of nowhere like a light switch, it just shuts off with no warning before turning itself back on. I've been told to change some power settings, so i'm trying that but i want to know if there's something i'm missing here.

    The BSOD error is caused by the "MediaTek 802.11n Wireless Adapter Driver".

    I recommend that you update the Mediatek driver to the latest version.

    If that doesn't help, try to uninstall and reinstall an older/different version of the MediaTek driver.

    I hope this helps. Feel free to ask back any questions and keep me posted.

    Hi Lee,

    I'm Paul, I'm sorry to hear you're having a problem.

    Don't worry, I will help you to solve it.

    Can you share the minidump files?

    1. Open Windows File Explorer
    2. Go to C:\Windows\Minidump
    3. Zip those files
    4. Upload the zip file to the Cloud (OneDrive, DropBox . . . etc.).
    5. Then share the link here.

    Thanks.
