Msfs crashes to computer restart

Featured Replies

My specs are as follows:

I7 9700 3gz

32 gigs ram

rtx 3060

Running three monitors 

Windows 10

750w power supply

All drivers are up to date

After about 45 minutes to an hour with any plane the sim crashes the computer and it restarts. I have  cleared community folder made no difference. Currently settings are set to high end. Any help would be appreciated.

Sounds like you might have a cooling problem or a power supply problem (overheating). Anything that causes a computer to restart is generally caused by hardware or drivers. Software, like MSFS will stress your CPU, GPU and intern will put your power supply under heavy load. 

I would do a stress test and monitor temps, power use, etc.

I would go with failing power supply. I had exactly the save issue a couple of weeks ago after an upgrade where I kept my original PSU. 

Check for 'Critical Kernel 41' errors in Event Viewer.
