Hi，Tyler Vaughn1

Welcome to Microsoft Community.



According to your description, you are not responding while playing Rust. You have to do a hard reboot to unfreeze the computer.



And there seems to be no minidump file.

Can you now see the error message in the event viewer about the pre-machine?

As well as check if you only have this problem when playing this one game.



Run a stress test on your hardware device and see if it's a hardware issue.

so i play games "rust" and then it crashes and says suspended in taskmaneger and then sometimes it goes into bluesrean i have taked to someone but they only daid do a windows update and type a bunch of code in comand prompt

While playing the Microsoft Solitaire Collection Daily Challenge I notice when it comes to play the Pyramid portion after about 10 - 20 second into it everything freezes and at the bottom right corner I get a message " Display Drivers has stopped responding
and recovered, Intel (R) HD Graphics Driver for Window 8 (R) stopped responding and has successfully recovered" my issue is that it only pops on while playing this particular game. I have Window 10 and have updated the graphics drivers with the latest version
and still having the same problem with Pyramid. When will MS fix this problem?

hey is there a chance to unfreeze ur game cuz when i hit continue it freezes with the music still playing what should i do

These stupid hard drives are a pain in the neck. i just bought a 120 gb hard drive a couple months ago and i have had multiple problems with the console. It like yours Reydel22 constantly says its unformatted. not only that but when i put the hdd in my xbox
it began to move really slow its beginning to freeze when i go into the system menus it unfreezes within two minutes. it plays full speed in burnout paradise when i go online but every 3-6 days i get the same unformatted error. i have to format it 10 times
to fix it and im sick of the hard drive making it difficult for me to play burnout.
