    Asus Tuff Gaming FX505DT-WB52 locks up while gaming


    I have an asus FX505DT-WB52 laptop and there's been a couple times where roblox locked up but today my whole computer locked up but I was able to ctrl alt delete with no problem but then it'd lock up my whole computer again. And I'm thinking maybe I installed the drivers in the wrong order? Maybe it's getting to hot or maybe roblox is to buggy and locked up my computer.

    What order should I install my driver's? And which drivers should I install from asus and which ones should I let windows install?

    And last what log can I look at in event viewer that would give me a good idea on what's going on?

    Thank you for your help :)

    Always install the chipset driver, first, and get it from ASUS or AMD.

    Get a free program like Speccy or HWMonitor and keep track of your temps.
    Always run the laptop on power saving or at most, balanced... power plans.
    That laptop you have is not really for anything more than light, gaming.
    If, you plan to be a serious gamer, get a huge heavy laptop that costs at least $1500 USD.
    ALWAYS use the laptop on a hard surface. Never on your lap or bed covers.

    If you absolutely have to use the laptop in bed or on the couch, etc., get a piece of wood say... 24" x 14" to rest the laptop on. You NEVER want anything blocking the vents on a laptop.









    /edit

    IF you think the software side of the laptop is an issue, do an In-place upgrade (fixes possible Windows issues).

    Repair Install Windows 10 with an In-place Upgrade




    Here is the short version of the In-place upgrade tutorial...

    DISABLE non-Microsoft:
    a) antivirus software
    b) firewall software
    c) drive encryption software

    Make a full OS backup with a program like Macrium Reflect (free)
    Macrium Software | Macrium Reflect Free

    Go here and get the Media Creation Tool and save it to your desktop.
    https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/soft...load/windows10

    RUN the Media Creation Tool and use it to: Create an ISO image... save IT to your desktop.
    This will be the latest version of the ISO image.

    For older ISO image versions, go here instead...
    Download Windows 10 ISO File


    Right click the ISO image and choose: MOUNT
    Open File Explorer and you will see a new drive letter. It will look like a DVD optical drive.
    Double click the new drive letter to open it.
    Find setup.exe and double click it to start the in-place upgrade.

    Choose the Keep personal files and apps option.

    After it's all done... to UNmount the ISO image, right click the new drive letter and choose: EJECT.


    The ONLY thing you will lose is some of your personalizations. Your programs and data will be intact.
