    My PC was acting normally, when the screen went blue and said that the computer needed to restart. It did nothing. Does this happen to anybody before? I have a Windows 10 computer. BeamNG.drive was opened. Could you give me tips?

    More info needed, bro. What's the stop error message? Does it start at all now? If so, how long will it run until it blue screens again?

    It just happened a few hours ago. I have never seen it before. On my computer, I had this turned on before it happened:
    • BeamNG.drive with 4 cars spawned.
    • Google Chrome with 3 tabs [a Russian site, this website right here, and YouTube]
    That is all I had opened. It just happened.

    Okay, but you didn't answer any of my question, because I can reproduce that and it runs fine for me.

    So, I ask again, what was your stop error message? Does you computer boot at all? If it does, how long will it run until another stop error message/bluescreen. If you don't know the stop error, reproduce the initial crash, then read the error message given. We can't help you otherwise.

    The blue screen has never come on before. It said sorry. Your computer is experienced problems. It will restart in (100%). When it got to 100%, the computer crashed on the restart.

    He is asking for things like IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (or whatever that is called) that appear at the bottom on the bsod. If you arent good with computers, download bluescreen viewer. It will give you all the info we need.

    Does your PC power on at all? Does it post? Does it start to load Windows?

    Could be thermals. Sounds pretty similar to what happened to me. Try a Windows re-installation first, though.

    So it powers on but you get no display? Or it powers on starts to boot and then bluescreens again?

    Right, this could be really bad. Worst case scenario you fried your CPU. Are competent to remove your computers side panel? Or is it a laptop?

    When a GPU dies 99% of the time it will still post but with very distorted graphics, I'm not discounting the GPU as the problem, it's just somewhat unlikely given the symptoms.

    Can't say for certain, you will have to start troubleshooting. disconnect all drives, remove all but one stick of ram, remove the GPU and try the on board graphics chip.
