    AirMadere:

    I also had this happen to me in the middle of a game this week in a stroke play game , i got a blue screen saying your computer ran into a problem and had to shut down , this is the 1st time i had this issue , i ran my virus protection and said i had no issues , just thought it was weird at the time . maybe it was something going on with wgt .

    The blue screen saying your computer ran into trouble and had to shut down is often a memory management problem. I am assuming that your computer restarted correctly. Most times your computer restarts correctly after this blue screen, But about 2 or 3 months ago mine didn't restart correctly and after 2 tries I was given 2 options. 1 to go back to a previous  restore point or uninstall and then reinstall Windows 10. I chose to go back to a restore point. After 2  failed attempts I was only given the option to uninstall and reinstall Windows 10. This took close to 2 hours and after the reinstall every thing I had on my computer was gone, It took another 2 hours the next day to get everything that I wanted back on. The computer has worked well since then. 

    And no it was not caused by WGT. This happened after a prolonged time in the sleep mode when I clicked to open Windows and wake the computer up.
