Thing is I must of reinstalled Steam a dozen times over past few weeks; on clean OS installs with no other software on, both on Windows and Linux. Plus I've reinstalled Star Citizen half-a-dozen times and that isn't on Steam (has own installer/launcher). I never change any settings in Steam.

@Martinr36 I have two drives. One for Windows, the other for Linux. Each has its own Steam installation and game installs; nothing shared between them.

You're not getting any write warnings from controlled folder access or anything when installing anything? They should show in your notification area if you are.

Hello -- attached zip here (it's less than 1mb). The LiveKernalReports folder was empty. Crash event was around 11:38/39 am today.

Interestingly when I fired-up the machine today, I was able to play Elite Dangerous for what felt like an hour before it crashed. This is the first time I've been able to play a game longer than 2-5 minutes. Mind you, most of that was spent paused trying to figure out keybindings, heh. So I probably had about 15-20 minutes of actual game play. I don't think Elite Dangerous is particularly resource heavy, for the most part.

I've included event log data, system info and driver list.

Many thanks.

Be aware, updating your BIOS without PCS approval will void warranty.

BIOS has no relation to playing games afaik? Only on security of the UEFI shell.

Additionally I have just installed Arma 3. Couple of minutes of game play before crashing. Logs attached, this time there was a LiveKernalReport file.
