Hi @ROY113
Welcome to the HP Support Community. I see that your HP system freezes and restarts automatically while playing games. We can surely look into the issue and help you fix it.
May I know if it happens only while playing games?
Let me know if you have made any recent changes to your system?
Do you see any fan noise or heating issues when it freezes or restarts?
If this happens while gaming most likely this is caused by the graphics driver.
try to reinstall the graphics driver or install the latest driver.
1. . Uninstall the graphics card driver and let Windows download the driver using the Windows update.
Press Windows key + X
select device manager.
Expand the display adapter
then right-click on your graphics card
then Uninstall.
restart your laptop.
Then open Windows Update then click Check for updates.
It should download the latest graphics driver and install.
2. Manually reinstall the graphics driver. Download the latest driver from here and install it. Also, try the older driver if the latest driver didn't work.
Hope this helps! Keep me posted.
