    Computor Shuts Down While Playing Minecraft


    Hello, Didn't find any solutions to this online, So I made my own post.

    Problem: Got a new gaming PC recently, store bought and assembled I didn't copy anything over from the old PC, fresh install for all apps, programs, etc. It plays games flawlessly and I have had zero issues with it so far. Until I tried to play minecraft. Downloaded the launcher from the website, created a new world, played for a few minutes before PC shuts down with no notice at all. Rebooted, loaded up the same world, after a few minutes the same thing happens. So I load up a different game (Mechwarrior 5) and play for hours with no issues. I go back to minecraft on a new world and leave the task manager up to check performance during gameplay. CPU, GPU, and all other columns seem normal and below 16% utilization at most (Memory), CPU and GPU both under 5% utilization. I play for 15 minutes without issue. I load up the original world and play for 15 minutes without issue. I play Mechwarrior and watch videos without issues for a day or two and try to play minecraft again after running windows "Repair App" function to see if that helps. I create another new world and in less than a minute the PC powers down again in the same manner. I uninstall the launcher, delete the .minecraft folder from the appdata folder in roaming, restart the PC, reinstall launcher. Let the launcher download the game again. Worlds missing and control settings reset as expected with full uninstall with no backup. I create a new world and play for more than half an hour before the shutdown occurs again in the same manner. The event viewer had the following event immediately preceding all of the shutdowns.

    This image is the event right before the shutdown.

    Just a Heads Up: I'm kinda lazy and to be honest the only reason I posted this is because I am concerned that a program can shutdown or reboot my PC without any UI, Request to the OS, or anything similar. I cannot guarantee it's minecraft doing it but I use my PC constantly and this has happened a total of 4 times, all whist playing minecraft within 30 seconds to 30 minutes of play time. So, if the solution sucks or if I get impatient, I will just uninstall minecraft and move on with my life.

    That being said I do always appreciate people who take the time to review these posts, and I hope looking into this post does not cause frustration.

    Hi, MichaelBecks

    Welcome to Microsoft Community.



    We understand that your computer will crash when you play Minecraft.

    From the picture information you uploaded, it can be seen that your computer configuration meets the requirements completely, and the error description in the event points the error to ACPI. It is suggested that you can check whether your PSU is up to standard and go to your motherboard manufacturer to update your Bios.

    If the problem still occurs after the above operations, and your PSU has reached the standard, it is recommended that you contact Minecraft official support:

    The power supply can also collect dust on the sides I would get some compressed air and try blowing any dust out if its over heating.
