So I suddenly got this error after a year of this computer working pretty well. The error just restarts the computer by itself and at random times (sometimes computer works great and other times opening programs causes computer to crash and restart).
This is what was in the event log:
A fatal hardware error has occurred.

I already tried updating my graphic driver (clean install), doing an sfc scannow, virus scan, and even tested out the RAM. Not sure what else to do, as I couldn't find solution anywhere online, that worked for me.
