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.

Hello, Haedyn Adams.

We appreciate you posting in Microsoft Community.



I noticed you can't play Rust on the new Xbox console.

I'm glad to have the opportunity to give you some advice.



The first thing you can be sure of is that you can download Rust on Xbox One X, which means that your game license is not an issue.

So are you experiencing similar issues when playing other games?



In fact you have performed almost all of the troubleshooting steps that can be performed on the Xbox console and have troubleshot almost all of the issues from the Xbox System.



If the issue is only occurring in Rust, then game compatibility with Xbox would be the next thing to consider.

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?
