This problem began recently.
Whenever I'm playing games (this seems to be specific to Steam games - Origin and GOG don't seem to be affected), the computer will freeze, and makes a noise as though the power's been cut. USB devices shut off, monitor and fans stay on. I have to hold down the power button to turn off the computer and restart it. I ran an update for Windows and my graphics card. WhoCrashed is not logging anything either.
This is getting frustrating as I can't seem to find a solution through google. Does anyone have any suggestions?
