PMS Keeps crashing

Server Version#: 1.15.6.1079
Player Version#: Samsung Smart TV, Chrome web client, Chromecast

1 day ago my PMS started crashing all the time. It actually, on 9 out of 10 reboots my computer. I run Windows Server 2016. (Kernel-Power Critical Error (Event ID 41)).

I’ve tried both Direct Play and transcode. I’ve played to Samsung TV’s of 3 different models. Chromecast. Webclient.

It’s been very irratic in the sense it would not work when transcoding and when changing to another device that direct played it started working.

Sometimes it happens after 3-4 minutes of play time, sometimes after 30 min.

The CPU cores are at 45C, because at first it felt like a hot summer day and some overheating.

I have tried 4 different source files and the result has been the same.

I will attach two logs.

Crashed just after a few minutes. Transcode. Server did not reboot. Client gave message that transcode had crashed.
