Ever since the latest Windows updates in mid November my computer will randomly reboot itself if it is on a site that is very photo-intensive(Flickr is a great example). It's got Windows 10 64-bit. I use Chrome. And I recently upgraded it to 16gb of RAM.
Thoughts? Suggestions?

I had a similar issue and it turned out to be a bad power supply...it would crash when I loaded certain youtube videos in high res

Make sure your RAM is plugged in correctly?
Or try the old RAM and see if it still happens?

It began with the old RAM, and yes the new RAM is inserted correctly.

Yeah, I'd have to go with either a dodgy driver (which would generally give you a blue-screen or whatever color it is now) or the power supply.

No, mine's doing it, too. Just started last week. I think it's the latest "Update" too.
[edit] Version 1709, installed 12/20. What've you got, Rich?

I'm at Version 1709, Build 16299.125. Not sure how to look up install time.

yes, however it sounds like it may be windows related seeing the other comments now. My issue was not on Windows 10....was on Windows 7 at the time

Version 1709 installed on 12/03. That would be about the time the probs started.

Turns out there was an issue with BITS(it was turned off) and Windows Update was bursted. Google helped a lot in figuring the issue out.
