Valorant restarts my PC around 1 minute and 30 second mark.
So I've been trying to get this fixed for 7 hours now, and I'm kind of out of ideas. I tried turning off almost every optimization in my BIOS settings for my CPU to check if that's the issue. It didn't fix it. I tried checking for voltage spikes with Hardware Info and HWMonitor, but everything looks fine. I tried checking the temps... Everything, again, FINE. I tried checking if maybe my PC is not getting enough power, so I ran some stress tests with OCCT and everything was FINE. Every single time I launch Valorant, after around the 1 minute and 30 seconds to 45 second mark, it just reboots my PC on its own. I don't know if this is because of Vanguard, but I am assuming it is. Because once I started the game without Vanguard, it didn't crash. I was just obviously stuck in the loading Screen saying that I can't enter the game without Vanguard. But it didn't restart my PC. Please, if someone knows a solution or has any ideas what could possibly be causing this, help. I'm starting to lose my mind with this. (P.S. Every other game works completely fine, I had a similar issue with Marvel Rivals in the past but it fixed itself. And the issue wasn't PC restart, just game crash because of UE5.) I appreciate any help or advices in advance.

Do you have a program that vanguard doesn’t approve of
ya do you
yo
if the error is that consistent, it could be because you don't have either secure boot, tpm 2.0 or hvci enabled
you should've gotten a van restriction popup but you didn't so try looking for this
hey guys thanks for replying
i shouldn't no, all i have is wallpaper engine, discord, spotify and some other small stuff open while trying play
appreciate it i'll try it now
one thing i can say is i tried hvci on and off and it didn't change anything
what about tpm & secure boot ?

you can try looking into your event viewer

oh ok
kernel issue, it only says pc unexpectedly shuts down
do you have anything plugged into your pcie slots other than your gpu?
like a sound card
nahh just gpu

its such a weird issue
and it only happens with valorant, im convinced that its an issue with vanguard
did you play valorant before or it is your first time
yes it's very probable
ive played it a lot before on this pc, it suddenly started happening out of nowhere
