Games like crusader kings 3 crash upon start or playing after a few minutes even after updating drivers and making sure there is plenty of space for the game. I need help figuring out how to get games to play properly

    • An available BIOS update resolves a specific issue or improves computer performance.
    • The current BIOS does not support a hardware component or a Windows upgrade.
