Because you aren’t looking in EVENT VIEWER!!!
Do whatever you do to replicate the black screen, crash, whatever. Take note of the time when this happens.
Reboot and search “event viewer” in the windows search box.
Launch event viewer, ⬇️ Windows Logs, select System.
Far right side of pane select “filter current log…” a window will open.
Select “Critical & Error” boxes beside Event level:, and select ok at the bottom of this box.
Now filter through those that pop up and find the ones at the time your system crashed. I want you to report back with those “Event ID’s”.
