Crash forcing me to restart PC

[GRIMM]

So I played the game earlier today when it first launched. Did beginning part and then the next where you walk around Milano talking to the other Guardians. So I got roughly 20 solid minutes of gameplay, with no issues. Running like a champ. And then my screen froze. I could still hear the audio from the game. I tried shift+tab and nothing, then ctrl+alt+delete, and nothing worked. After a minute I just had to force my laptop to shut down.

The laptop was not running hot or anything either.

I had to leave to run errands and I just got back to try it again, but wondering if anyone else has run into a similar issue.

Nvidia drivers are up to date

Specs:
i7-10870H
RTX 3070
16GB Ram
m.2 SSD

Was running the game at mostly default, except for changing to exclusive fullscreen and turning on nvidia dlss and setting it to performance mode.

I'm hoping this was just a freak launch day crash and nothing else.

Got ray tracing on?

RT is turned off. I have it on default settings except for DLSS / Exclusive Fullscreen

Did you goof up and get windows 11?

[GRIMM]

No. I have no intentions of switching just yet.

Just got another crash. Temps were @ 75 and 75 for both CPU and GPU each right at the crash.

This time at least I could ctrl+alt+delete out

It happened right when you are give the ability to shoot in the first area outside of the Milano, after that platform falls off of the wall.

And crash #3 now. Similar to the last one, as it allowed me to ctrl+alt+del out.

I'm getting around 20 minutes of gameplay when these crashes seem to be occuring.

Temps were also fine once again. In fact, cooler than last time.
