- Does it pass 30 minutes of Heaven Benchmark (with pretty high settings)?
- Does it pass 30 minutes of OCCT Power-Supply Test (DX11, Full Screen, 64bit Linpack, All Logical Cores)?
- Does it crash while doing anything else (ALL Non-Full-Screen Windows Gaming [Direct-X] tasks)
Primary Surface Test sounds like "PC Doctor" test from SupportAssist (is it)? If so, reportedly, that test is slightly broken and often throws un-true errors.
Is it an Alpha R1 or a R2?
What video card is in that machine?
Are you running those Bethesda games from a SSD?
What video drivers are you running, and did you "clean-install" them?
What errors are in Windows Reliability Report (in general that might be related or around the time of the crash)?
Are you getting a BSOD or just a "Hard-Lock"? ie, can you get to Task-Manager after crash?
Hi emily. New here an unsure how to pm u. I have an alienware alpha with an i3 processor, i just did clean install of windows after i factory reset everything. Every game i play crashes. Any chance u can help me out please? I get no system error code or anything. Sometimes im able to play a cpl matches in a row but ultimately the game itself crashes constantly. All drivers are up to date. Any help would be much appreciated
