Windows 10 system crashing
My Windows 10 system has crashed twice in the last two days. When it happens it just stops completely with my monitor turning off as well and the connected printer recycling. The interesting thing is that this Windows 10 system has not communicated with the 4K seiki monitor and does not go into sleep mode. Even more interesting is my Windows 8.1 system does communicate with an identical Seiki 4K monitor and does enter sleep mode automatically.
No blue screen of death, no warning whatsoever. My battery backup is not doing anything so it must not be a power issue. When I turn my monitor back on and press the start button on my computer it starts back up with no problem.
Both times I was working with a Microsoft Access 2013 application in VBA.

Thank you very much, my system is working fine now...
and what was the cause, or solution?
Thanks for the update
Open Admin Tools, Event Viewer. What events occurred at the same time as a crash?
Windows 10 needs BIOS updated for some of it recent updates. Can you update BIOS, Chipset and Video drivers? I am not sure that would cause the crashing, but Video might have a bearing.
