This happens to me whenever I launch games from steam. It just recently started to happen to my laptop for some reason. Even though I used to be able to run these games with ease (stable 60 fps, 30% CPU, 40% gpu and 25% ram). Whenever I launch a game it opens normally. However when I enter a match and the map/ characters start loading, after 1-3 seconds, boom! The PC either reboots or shuts down. I am now using a gpu/CPU and psu stresser at full graphics to see when something goes wrong. But surprise surprise!!! Nothing happens! It works normally for hours at full speed! Temperature levels are completely normal and the fps is stable! (12.5 fps). Up unti now, I have tried everything. From changing the power options to even reinstalling windows.
Here's a random problem i used to have. I normally keep my pc running over night because of work related reasons. Woke up with my system being fully rebooted. One fix that worked for me is to go into the bios and turning off C-State in my cpu's power settings. For those who dont know what C-State does, It basically lowers the power put into the cpu when the computer detects the system being less active but can cause issues on some computers.
I’ve replaced my power supply and all my connections seem to be good. And I don’t have any power issues/ bad fuses in the house. All of my hardware temps are normal. Could it be a bios issue?
@@KDSTech most recent bios and my r5 3600 is at 4.2ghz oddly. Also my psu didn't have a 8+4 pin for the CPU, so I used the single 8 pin it had. I think it's because of the lack of 4 pin
MystikFlash have tried putting the settings to stock and running like that for a bit to see if it resolved issue? The 4 pin is optional. While it “could” be contributing to the problem from the oc, I’d be willing to bet it’s something else. But I’m just guessing at this point and by no way am saying that I know for certain.
guys if you have this problem just get another PSU to test. I had the exact same issue and i actually went from 650w to a 500w and im more than happy now. I use a GTX1070 8gb card. this error is caused by your sytem requesting power from PSU but PSU is failing.
This is annoying! Fortunately, it happens just in games and never when I'm working. I work with render, and sometimes I use literally all 16 CPU cores. Sometimes 100% GPU. But it gives me no error. But when I start a game... pc restarts (randomly). Usually, on Steam. I'm trying to play FIFA, and in the first load screen the PC restart. And now is restarting everytime. Fortnite was running smoothly and today restarted once. It's frustrating. It happened with me in Windows 7, 8, 10, 11. With older hardwares, with the new ones. With high end setups. With updated drivers. I changed my PSU, RAM, thermal paste. And nothing works. These kind of problem it's random. I've tried to look for some electricity problem, and found nothing. It's absolutely annoying and frustrating.
IF YOU STILL HAVE THIS ISSUE AFTER UPGRADING YOUR PC CONCIDER THIS ~~~~~~ Its a power error. So its probably your power supply. If you have a dedicated video card, try to apply a -10% clockspeed. If that helps, and you dont experience these again after applying this underclock, then your pc is draining too much power from your power supply henceforth you need to upgrade your psu.
This is not power supply problem, I bought a new and more powerful power supply. The problem still occurs. There is something wrong with turning on the computer. Other strange things are like this. 1 during the first boot (after the night), when the computer was connected to the terminal (not directly to the socket) started after a few attempts ... but if I connected the computer directly to the socket in the wall, the computer (after the night) immediately started. 2 still freezing occurs but only at the beginning of operation / use of the computer ... 3. After a few starts of the computer, everything stabilizes and you can use the system without a problem ... nothing hangs, even after leaving it for several minutes. I will add that the drivers for all devices in the computer are CURRENT, the registry has NO errors.
I checked the RAM. It turned out that one of them (dual) was damaged. I replaced it and the problem is gone. Everything is ok. It goes through and resumes the standby mode, etc. I even managed to sell the old power supply. (in additional power options, I set "high efficiency")

Built a 10900k, gigabyte z490 master, transferred my 2 month old Team Group Memory, 1 year old 850 corsair psu, to new build, week later put rtx 3080 in. 1 month later event id 41 started happening. Bought new corsair psu 1000w and the corsair cable kit, new nvme drives, the latter did not solve the problem, did a full clean install on Tue night 01/19/21 and happened again wed morning, I do believe its a BIOS setting or a bad bios version. This event is so hard to troubleshoot since you get no bsod and it happens random
Even my pc don't shut down itself but it got freeze yesterday and I got Id 41 error .....can it be because my shut down intruptted by steam always ..... ?
This is happening to me too. I think it's a bit weird that whenever I'm trying to find an answer to this problem 9 out of 10 times people have an asus board. (Like me). At the moment I'm trying to resolve this by powering the pc from wall outlet, maybe that helps. We'll see.

Hello i have been having this error for more than 3 months, this occurs to me a lot after exiting FFXIV. i have changed my PSU, and the problem still occurs. My GPU drivers are updated to latest and the same for windows 10. i have tried many different solutions, and at this point i have no idea what to do.
This happens to me every once in a while, my pc doesn't restart, but it freezes and the only solution is to restart it pressing power button. Interesting thing is, it doesn't happen when I use any emulators and games either, but whenever I use Microsoft Teams and turn on/off camera and screen sharing or other people does it, it happens.
had the same issue on my old rampage v extreme. bios update cause it to randomly shut off too. something funky with the anti surge support thing in the bios. they ended up releasing one not too long after and disabled that feature. general rule of thumb now is to not fix what isnt broken. still on bios 0224 with my maximus xi formula lol. everything is rock solid.
I have the same problem here, I already changed the power source and nothing. I am believing that there is a certain frequency of screen of death (kernel-41) when I use chrome
my pc only restarts when the CPU is at 100% usage constantly, when im using engine called Unreal Engine 4, and it uses 100% cpu usage for everyone when its shader compiling. So im guessing that the kernel power error i get is cause of my CPU but i have no idea how to solve it.

Two months after I got my 4090 I started getting this error. Screens go black, gpu fans ramp to 100%. 90% of the time it happens at desktop. Couple times during gaming. Happens multiple times a day now. Never happened with my 3080. I have changed nothing. Now thinking about rma the gpu.
Hey, thanks for the detailed video bro. I have bought my pc a month ago. i5 12600k, 512GB nvme SSD, Gigabyte B660MDS3H. 16GB RAM Corsair, Powersupply - corsairCV650. I am getting kernel power event 41 once daily. I am getting this error from day 1. I thought it is a software issue, so I changed the window, update the driver, and did all things but nothing happened. So can I change CPU core voltage? or any other solution? please help, Thanks
Also i get the error at desktop, streaming video or gaming, Also, i don't have anything overclocked. I do believe its a bios setting, bad bios version, or bios that needs an update depending on the version out of the box. Bios is the best place to start if you know how to look there before swapping hardware out
Guys..my pc always shuts down when i start to play a game. I'm not sure what is the problem. When I checked the event viewer it says event id 41. Which means this kernel stuff. I tried every method. Still the same. I'm getting frustrated day by day. I can't even play old games such Fifa 10 or even Bully. It's maybe because of my psu? I'm using it for 4 years. My psu is Aerocool af650. Is it something to do with my psu? I checked my cpu temps. It was quite okay. My cpu temp holds at 50c to 70c when i'm gaming. Maybe it's my graphics card ? Because that one also same age as my psu. 4 years already. My gpu is Asus strix oc edition r9 380 2gb. If someone knows the solution. Please do help me. 🙏😭
what software do you have running in Background? and what usb devices do you have plugged in? i ask becuase i just had this problem again it was my logitech software/devices causing the problem. i had to update the logitech hub software after unplugging the usb device.
i had the problem over a period of time and once in a while. but after replacing the power supply the problem was completely solved, the power that i bought new is msi mag a550
When I noticed this error. I did all the fixes nothing worked. Checked my bios cause I recently updated. Smart Fan for my pump was not enabled. But the cpu fan was. So in my head I wonder. The system ran fine unless I did a load like play a game for a bit then let it rest. Cause it does say hardware meaning anything. Also it was acting like it didn't get enough air to the cpu or acted like it wasn't fully on. Turned it on max my fans in icue and so far no more issue. Still could be bad outlets in my room like you said we are testing that soon.
yea but the thing is that when error occurs after that error doesn occur untill I shut it down manually and it is bucheckcode 0 anyone know what to do??
i have been having this problem for a while now, gaming or just surfing the internet. + it also experiences BSOD whenever I turn my laptop on without charging it. Upon these details do you have any idea what could be the problem
My Desktop PC used AMD Ryzen 5 3400G CPU and MSI B450 class motherboard. My PC recently keeps restarting randomly even in Safe mode, recovery screen mode etc. I have tried replacing PSU, swapping RAM slots, resetting bios using jumper etc. but not working. My friend said it is problem with motherboard itself. In Event viewer it showing critical events ID 41, bugcheckcode 0 - just before PC restarts. What can be the issue?

i have random shutdowns and freezes only while im gaming. could leave it on the with no apps running or even have steam and other apps running and have no issue but ONLY when i play games does it happen and usually the more demanding the game the more often it happens, change some things around with vram and many others to increase performance so its happening less but the kernel power shutoff issue or free issue only happens when the pc is under pressure to perform. any suggestions i should look into softwarw wise that i maybe havent looked at anyone?

Built a 10900k, gigabyte z490 master, transferred my 2 month old Team Group Memory, 1 year old 850 corsair psu, to new build, week later put rtx 3080 in. 1 month later event id 41 started happening. Bought new corsair psu 1000w and the corsair cable kit, new nvme drives, the latter did not solve the problem, did a full clean install on Tue night 01/19/21 and happened again wed morning, I do believe its a BIOS setting or a bad bios version. This event is so hard to troubleshoot since you get no bsod and it happens random
Even my pc don't shut down itself but it got freeze yesterday and I got Id 41 error .....can it be because my shut down intruptted by steam always ..... ?
This is happening to me too. I think it's a bit weird that whenever I'm trying to find an answer to this problem 9 out of 10 times people have an asus board. (Like me). At the moment I'm trying to resolve this by powering the pc from wall outlet, maybe that helps. We'll see.
For me lowering the ram frequency has improved the stability. Everything else wasn't helpful.

Hello i have been having this error for more than 3 months, this occurs to me a lot after exiting FFXIV.
i have changed my PSU, and the problem still occurs. My GPU drivers are updated to latest and the same for windows 10.
i have tried many different solutions, and at this point i have no idea what to do.
did you fix it? how?
Do you have any gadgets that shouldn't be there ? Like a 6pin or 8pin adaptor?
Try increasing the power to your GPU, that fixed it for me :P
Are you able to resolve this issue ?
@@johnbravo7689 having the same issue?
So what your saying is "It could be anything"
This happens to me every once in a while, my pc doesn't restart, but it freezes and the only solution is to restart it pressing power button. Interesting thing is, it doesn't happen when I use any emulators and games either, but whenever I use Microsoft Teams and turn on/off camera and screen sharing or other people does it, it happens.
Bad driver most likely
had the same issue on my old rampage v extreme. bios update cause it to randomly shut off too. something funky with the anti surge support thing in the bios. they ended up releasing one not too long after and disabled that feature. general rule of thumb now is to not fix what isnt broken. still on bios 0224 with my maximus xi formula lol. everything is rock solid.
Preach it!
Great insight
I have the same problem here, I already changed the power source and nothing.
I am believing that there is a certain frequency of screen of death (kernel-41) when I use chrome
my pc only restarts when the CPU is at 100% usage constantly, when im using engine called Unreal Engine 4, and it uses 100% cpu usage for everyone when its shader compiling. So im guessing that the kernel power error i get is cause of my CPU but i have no idea how to solve it.
I have the same problem (41 Kernel-Power). It appears when I do nothing on the computer. After about 5 minutes it freezes and a hardreset is needed.
IF YOU STILL HAVE THIS ISSUE AFTER UPGRADING YOUR PC CONCIDER THIS ~~~~~~
Its a power error. So its probably your power supply. If you have a dedicated video card, try to apply a -10% clockspeed. If that helps, and you dont experience these again after applying this underclock, then your pc is draining too much power from your power supply henceforth you need to upgrade your psu.
@@lydierayn This is not power supply problem, I bought a new and more powerful power supply. The problem still occurs. There is something wrong with turning on the computer. Other strange things are like this. 1 during the first boot (after the night), when the computer was connected to the terminal (not directly to the socket) started after a few attempts ... but if I connected the computer directly to the socket in the wall, the computer (after the night) immediately started. 2 still freezing occurs but only at the beginning of operation / use of the computer ... 3. After a few starts of the computer, everything stabilizes and you can use the system without a problem ... nothing hangs, even after leaving it for several minutes. I will add that the drivers for all devices in the computer are CURRENT, the registry has NO errors.
It turned out, after all possible actions found on the network, that two (out of four) RAM memories were faulty. I changed them to new ones and the problem disappeared but did not end ... problem 41 Kernel-Power still appears in the event log, but the computer starts without a problem, even after not using it for a long time, and does not freeze at all. The power options are set to "high performance" and "sleep disk" to 0

Great advice, mate. Thank you for making such a helpful video!
Also i get the error at desktop, streaming video or gaming, Also, i don't have anything overclocked.

Bios is the best place to start if you know how to look there before swapping hardware out
Guys..my pc always shuts down when i start to play a game. I'm not sure what is the problem. When I checked the event viewer it says event id 41. Which means this kernel stuff. I tried every method. Still the same. I'm getting frustrated day by day. I can't even play old games such Fifa 10 or even Bully. It's maybe because of my psu? I'm using it for 4 years. My psu is Aerocool af650. Is it something to do with my psu? I checked my cpu temps. It was quite okay. My cpu temp holds at 50c to 70c when i'm gaming. Maybe it's my graphics card ? Because that one also same age as my psu. 4 years already. My gpu is Asus strix oc edition r9 380 2gb. If someone knows the solution. Please do help me. 🙏😭
Im having the same problem but I just built my pc, chances are it's the psu, Still haven't found a fix though
what software do you have running in Background? and what usb devices do you have plugged in? i ask becuase i just had this problem again it was my logitech software/devices causing the problem. i had to update the logitech hub software after unplugging the usb device.
I have same problem 😭😭 and I can't fix it my pc run perfect sometimes it's freezing 🥶
Still have problem now?
i had the problem over a period of time and once in a while. but after replacing the power supply the problem was completely solved, the power that i bought new is msi mag a550
When I noticed this error. I did all the fixes nothing worked. Checked my bios cause I recently updated. Smart Fan for my pump was not enabled. But the cpu fan was. So in my head I wonder. The system ran fine unless I did a load like play a game for a bit then let it rest. Cause it does say hardware meaning anything. Also it was acting like it didn't get enough air to the cpu or acted like it wasn't fully on. Turned it on max my fans in icue and so far no more issue. Still could be bad outlets in my room like you said we are testing that soon.
yea but the thing is that when error occurs after that error doesn occur untill I shut it down manually and it is bucheckcode 0 anyone know what to do??
i have been having this problem for a while now, gaming or just surfing the internet. + it also experiences BSOD whenever I turn my laptop on without charging it. Upon these details do you have any idea what could be the problem

Why in my case i can run heavy games without a issue like warzone on ultra and more but when i play certain easy game my computer decide to reboot what can i learn for that to know for sure what is not my problem for sure?
Ive been having this issue every since reinstalling windows about a month ago. I don't get I it all the time most of the time is fine. But has hapont unplugging my external soundcard caused bsod (which never used to happen) recently got stuck into a bsod loop on bootup but managed to sorted it by forcing it too boot and hasn't happened since but in event viewer I have seen a lot of the same error and it's only "kernal 41 (63)" I have a 750w evga powersupply ive had this built for 5+years now and never had this problem before so not too sure where to loon
Same..4 years.. suddenly this problem appeared.. can't even play games..always shut down 😭 but i heard its psu problem.. because psu lifespan is around 5 years to 6 years.
check your usb devices, unplug them and try running. i recently had this problem caused by my logitch brio requiring a software update. all i did was unplug the device ( web cam ) update the logitech software, replug it back in and update the firmware. fixed this problem this time.
mine only happens when i play a game named the The Forest , ive played way heavier titled game such as doom eternal but didnt shut down. only happens with The Forest
mine only happens when I play subnautica, dont know why
I fixed my problem for me it was the Bluetooth drive, when i took it out it stopped the kernal power 41 error.

chak i have the same problem do you have a fix?
You need a new power supply. Your power supply isn’t giving your components enough power to handle an intensive task, such as gaming.
Make sure to get at least an 80 plus bronze efficient psu.
It's weird that I only get this problem playing MapleStory, A decade old game, but I'm totally fine running CSGO/League of Legends/Halo/Street Fighter V all on max. I tried almost everything, but nothing is working. Everthing except a full wipe of my PC.
porygonL how long has it been since you’ve done a fresh install?
@@KDSTech Maybe 2 years.
I usually do a fresh install about once a year... it’s crazy how windows can build up a bunch of conflicting files. It might be worth your time to do so.
@@KDSTech I'll try that out! Thanks.
Happens to me on gta v ..
I have tried all windows related solutions
Haven't checked psu yet
Does bios update have anything to do with it? My bios is outdated
I would update the bios. It is possible that could be causing the problem.
It could be, if others are reporting the same issue.
For me, it was as simple as increasing the power limit in radeon settings.
For me lowering the ram frequency has improved the stability. Everything else wasn't helpful.
Okay, so here is how I managed to fix the problem I had withy PC
It's a
R5 2600 (stock)
RTX 2060 super
B450 MSI mortar
16gb (8*2) 3000 MHz Gskill tridentz
550w PSU which I replaced with a 650w PSU
So, one day while I was editing a video for UA-cam my PC crashed, both my displays went black, my CPU fans were still on and running at a slight higher RPM than usual
I looked at the event and had this exact same event ID error
I took it to the shop where I bought the components from, and after hours of testing I changed my PSU to 650w one
Went home started working and it crashed again after a day
So each time it crash there's this ez debug light on my motherboard and there's cpu, vram, etc and the CPU faulty indicator kept flashing
All my components were under warranty so I decided to send them all out get fixed
ie, Ram, Processor and MOBO
So if you guys don't know what to do and you have the same issue as me
Try getting a RAM from a friend and test your PC with it,
It could be your RAM, and if that doesn't work try a processor, try on a different motherboard
This issue will happen if you have a faulty RAM, processor, GPU
So try and test your rig, if it's under warranty find it and get it replaced
So is this issue most likely caused by a power supply? I keep getting this error, and I've had my power supply just under two months now. It just recently started doing this when I added some Uphere fans into my pc case for cooling.
For me lowering the ram frequency has improved the stability. Everything else wasn't helpful.
glad to hear that did help.
I have noticed that as well. When I disable xmp profile or decrease frquency from 3600 to 3200, the system works flawlessly, but whenever I enable x.m.p 3600, I will get random "power cut-down and reboot".
Before it randomly shutdown, I have noticed that there are some WHEA 19 "proccessor core" with "unknown error source".
