In this guide, we’ll explore the most common reasons behind frequent crashes and share both quick DIY tips and professional solutions from Supreme Computers to keep your system stable and reliable.

Why Your PC Crashes

A Quick DIY Checklist

1. Clean Your PC: Power down, open the case, and remove dust from fans, vents, and heatsinks.

2. Update Drivers: Download the latest versions from Intel, NVIDIA/AMD, and your motherboard manufacturer.

3. Run Diagnostics: Use Windows Memory Diagnostic or MemTest86 for RAM, and CrystalDiskInfo for drive health.

4. Scan for Malware: Perform a full system scan with Windows Defender or a trusted antivirus.
