I've recently downloaded GTA V and have been dropping applications since that time, be it Chrome, Discord, GTA V, Fortnite, everything crashes. The strange thing is that everything in my PC works perfectly. Wanted to have him repaired but they could not find anything except a few minor viruses that they then removed. My graphics card (GeForce GTX 1050Ti) works, my processor (Intel Core i5) also and the rest of the hardware. Have GTA V already 3 or 4 times reinstalled but it still crashes. Even if GTA V is not running, my open applications crash. The games and other applications do not always crash but they crash more often than they do not crash. And if a game does not crash, I can play it with well over 60 FPS. At least until it crashes, which usually takes about 1-2 hours. Need really helpful answers, because if I do not help, I'll have to buy a new computer on Black Friday (29.11.19).
Since I'm now only guessing… Maybe you can even look how your processor / memory utilization is when you gta have open? And even if it is not open. Maybe even reinstall Windows, which is more like a last stopgap. So before you get big new PC.
You can only guess. I suspect that a component is running hot, e.g. Power supply because the graphics draw too much power, so power supply too weak,
or RAM is defective, so run RAM test.
I have the impression that you have actually brought you viruses; who knows where from?
My reaction to viruses is radical without asking: thoroughly erase entire system disk and reinstall Windows and programs. My experience from my start time at that time has shown that viruses can be repaired, but unfortunately there are also Trojans that will be active at a later date (maybe even years) and nobody knows which module was the error (now only later! ) generated. There have been many opportunities in recent years. And it has been warned enough.
I can't say what GTA-V is; seems to be a game, so no statement from me about its quality. I do not need this to work on the PC. There's also a risk of getting cheap programs from unknown third party vendors. Quality costs money!
