If there is an entry in Critical Events,in Reliability History,then under the Summary heading,RIGHT click on the entry and that should give ---view tech details--- and a left click on that gives the log file.

Thanks for the answers, i'll try one thing at the time so i don't do too many things at once.
For the explorer.exe hang, the only info in reliability monitor was that it had stopped communicating with windows.
In cases where i hit the reset button, the only entry is that the shutdown was unexpected.
Ok, so it just happened again. Everything slowly stops responding, apps, windows. Except for ctrl+alt+del, so i could log out and back in which appears to be enough to recover. No reboot needed.
Since the last time i shipped my 5700xt off to RMA, meanwhile i am using a backup nvidia card. Did a DDU, it's been running fine since thursday.
Reliability History says the hang had something to do with the nvidia drivers. But i don't know if the nvidia drivers are hanging because of windows and windows then detects that, i don't know the order of which things are happening. So, i don't know how much i can trust Reliability History. Considering that a driver crash shouldn't make every app stop responding and timeout.
@nirsoft BlueScreenView should help you see the precise sequence of events that lead to the problem, if the Nvidia driver is throwing an appcrash of some kind. You just have to find the dump file (.dmp) file. Using Voidtools Everything, for example, I can see a file named C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\AppData\Local\CrashDumps\NVDisplay.Container.exe.10476.dmp (used full path spec to also show you where it lives).
HTH,
