I'm having trouble figuring this one out. I can game all day long and my computer will never lock up as long as the game is not minimized or in the background. I don't have any issues when not gaming either. But when I am playing a game and I minimize it to do something else, or even when I just click on something on one of my side monitors, there is always a chance my computer will freeze/ lock up.
It doesn't do it every time, but every time my computer does lock up, it is when I'm gaming, and the game is in the background or minimized. It doesn't BSOD, the screen and audio will just freeze until I manually reboot.
I've tested my CPU, RAM, and SSD and all are fine. Seems odd that it only ever occurs under those specific circumstances, yet never while actually playing the game (not minimized, etc).
Any ideas?
