What graphics card do you have again?
Have you tested the games with the On-Board graphics and the Graphics Card removed?
My PC randomly shuts down with the Event ID 41 and I don't know what causes it

My PC shuts down randomly but most of the time when I'm playing games and sometimes when I have a game run in the background while I'm doing something else. The crashes usually occur when I play indie games but other games like cyberpunk 2077 work fine on medium graphical settings but when I try to play a small indie game I have a 50% chance of it crashing my PC sometimes 30min and other times 20h into the game.
This is my latest bug report:

2023-02-21T14:06:42+00:00 I just got this error when updating my graphics card drivers maybe this can lead to some sort of an idea as to why my pc crashes as I couldn't find anyone else with this error.
