My computer will randomly crash and I have spent so long trying to troubleshoot it myself and I cannot seem to figure it out.
There is really no way I can tell if one will happen they seem extremely random sometimes I will go hours without any issue and other times it will be no less than a few minutes in between crashes. What happens when it crashes my screen freezes for a split second then goes black but audio still plays for some time then glitches out. The computer remains on until I force restart it by holding the power button down. I have tried numerous things with uninstalling and reinstalling graphics drivers as well as trying completely separate graphics cards however the problem persists. Please anything is appreciated I can also provide event logs if needed.
Thank you

I understand the issue you have, there is nothing to worry I am here to assist, and just to confirm can you still use the affected device? if so, I need to analyze the error, can you please check if you have minidump files on the PC so that I can further examine what is the root cause of the issue?
Press Windows key + E (To open File Explorer)
Click "This PC" > then follow the file path:
C:\Windows\Minidump
Copy the Minidump files and save them to another location like Desktop or Documents.
Then please upload it to Cloud storage like OneDrive or any cloud storage you are using and please share the shareable link here.
To upload and share the link using One Drive:
Go to this link: https://onedrive.live.com/ then upload the file.
Then provide the shareable link by following the steps from this link: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/shar...
Note: If you cannot see Minidump files, can you please check the System logs on the PC so that I can further examine the root cause of the issue?
To do this kindly follow the steps from this link:

We need to run a clean installation of the Nvidia driver, this is different from doing DDU or updating the driver as this will remove all entries and replace them with compatible ones, kindly follow the steps from the link below:

Additional note: If the issue persists, I suggest removing the GPU and placing it into another PCIe port available, however, if all fails, I suggest contacting a local technician to physically check the device for any hardware-related issues.

I installed that driver however the issue was even worse. It crashed 2 times almost instantly after rebooting. I do not have any other PCIe slots however I can try reseating the gpu. I also plan on trying an older driver. Worst case scenario do you think a clean reset and a fresh install of windows would work?
