Valo crashing laptop
I've had this issue for a while now, but often when I try to play Valorant and whether I'm mid game or in lobby, my whole screen freezes and I'm unable to leave Valorant or do anything in general. I have to go all the way and shut down and turn my laptop back on. I've tried deleting and reinstalling Valorant but the issue remains. Could this be because of background running apps? Because the only apps I have running in the background are Chrome and Discord. These are my settings/specs (Oh! And this only happens with valo and not any other games)

Can u still hear ur teammates when ur laptop freezes?
Yes
Open power settings
Advanced power settings
See if fast startup is checked
Also! I do use a monitor that is connected through my laptop if that has anything to do with it
I use monitor👍
Disable fast startup
Eh shouldn't matter rly
What does that do?
Basically when its on, ur cpu doesn't turn off COMPLETELY
So the next time u open the pc, it takes less time to open
But yea its bad in some ways
Ahhhh I see
Do you think this would resolve the issue
Like r u sure
There is no surety in problems like these
All we can do is hit and trial
Alright, I'll let do that and I'll let u know if it works!!! Thank you so much:)
Is it okay if this stays open?
Yea
it could be because you're laptop is 165hz and val is 180hz see if u can make it 165hz
what hz is that set to?
ensure the one on game and actual monitor matches
Can't rly see how that could crash the entire laptop
Also val Can't give u an 180 option if the laptop screen/monitor is only 165
