Default EQ (Liekly) Causing Computer to Reboot Without Errors/Warning

Rare OOC post:

I'm at my wits end here and on the verge of taking a prolonged break from EQ after dying several times in the late 40s due to random PC reboots while playing EQ.

I upgraded my PC recently to a Ryzen/Nvidia combo, and been having really weird PC reboots (no error message or anything) but only while playing EQ (using WinEQ2 if that matters). No such issues with any other game or application (even buggy/demanding games like Cyberpunk are running great after long game sessions).

Tried a few basic fixes (admin mode; compatibility mode; using only 1 core in .ini; resolution change from 1440p to 1080p, etc.), but issue is still happening. Hardware temps look fine and don't suspect it's an issue with PC because reboots only seem to happen when playing EQ. Sometimes EQ runs for hours just fine... other times the reboots happen back to back. Really scratching my head at this one.

Might try a clean reinstall of EQ and see what happens, but quite the pain. Tried asking around a few other places and no luck so far. Hoping someone might be able to provide some guidance because this problem has made EQ almost unplayable, sadly, [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.].
