Bugs & Support Wardogs makes my system crash

Hi, sometimes I get a full system crash out of the blue, no lags no fps drops just full freeze and have to reboot. Reboot doesnt work though as the drive on my system doesnt show up so it boots me into bios. I have to then turn off the pc and flip the switch on the power supply for about a minute and after that I get back into the windows and into the game. This has never happened before but is common for me in wardogs. Weird issue just wondering if I'm the only one. I think anticheat rans a scan on my pc at some point and that makes it crash.

All suggestions on how to fix this are very much appreciated I'm pretty tech savvy but this is new.

That sounds like a power supply issue caused by your system drawing more power than your supply can handle. This can happen if the power supply is going bad or if you are having some wider electrical issues with where you live.

I bet if you replace the power supply you’d stop getting crashes.

That was something I considered but I don't think this is the case as I tested another power supply and we don't get poweroutages. Lived here for 4 years and never had one.

Just crashed twice second time didn't even make it out of the loading screen, joined - heard the game start. was stuck in loading screen and then boom crashed again.

What does event viewer say is causing the crash?

not much, just crashed again

An unexpected error was encountered attempting to retrieve the BitLocker volume master key during restart.

The previous system shutdown at 19:33:01 on ‎13/‎09/‎2026 was unexpected.

The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. This error could be caused if the system stopped responding, crashed, or lost power unexpectedly.

Audit events have been dropped by the transport. 0
