PC black screen crash. needs full restart

My girlfriend is trying to play Valorant but it keeps crashing her pc. It gives a black screen and the only thing she can do is restart the pc. I though it was the graphics card because her pc was a bit outdated so we bought a whole new pc. She still has the same problem.. Does anyone know a fix? she does not have this problems in other games. I tried a few things: reinstalling running as administrator firewall permissions turning of tpm Diffrent monitor diffent hard drive No fix yet.

Not sure how because of the black screen. there is no possible way for me to see anything. Or do you want a ss just with valorant running in the background?

I also did the stress test thing from amd with no problems or struggles. Before this pc she had an nvidia 1070 with the exact same problem.

Quick question tho, does the black screen appear as soon the you launch the game, or does it happen mid game?

Most of the times it is midgame. Sometimes it is in the main menu. Never occured when booting up valorant

Try this, launch the game, go to settings > video settings > change to windowed mode And then see if the problem persists
