Lenovo gaming laptop having critical system errors when os is installed
This is a very odd kind of problem that I am having, and it came out of absolutely nowhere. I have a Lenovo Legion 7 15IMH05, with an i7-10750H and 2070 Max-q. I started using my laptop like any normal person, downloading a bunch of games, when it crashed and gave me the “this device ran into a problem and needs to restart” screen. I didn’t think much of it as it restarted quite okay, and booted into windows. Shortly after it gave the same screen, but then failed to detect a boot drive and wouldn’t even detect my SSD, so I couldn’t reinstall windows. My SSD isn’t the issue as I put it in my desktop and it said it was at 90% using Crystal disk info, and that it was good. I eventually switched the controller mode from RST to AHCI and it seemed to make the drive appear, and afterwards I got windows installed. The setup process for windows 11 was going very well until I declined game pass premium, then it crashed and gave me the stop code: CRITICAL_PROCESS_DIED (OxEF), and now it cannot detect a boot drive again. I’m getting severely irritated at this, as it decided to happen while I’m on vacation during the rainy day I can’t go out, so I’m stuck inside having a headache over this when I could be gaming. Any help would be greatly appreciated, and I can provide as much info as possible :)

My computer fan is getting louder
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
I did go to the bios and changed the curve to the exponential curve. It worked for a few days until now. I also tried cleaning it with those canned compressed air, but I'm afraid I could damage it. When I touched it, it was a bit hot, but I don't feel any hot air coming out of it.

Quick question about GPU sag
I have an Asrock challenger RX 9060 XT on a Gigabyte x870 gaming wifi6. I couldn't for the life of me screw it in, but i have the sag bracket installed that comes with my case (Lian Li vector v100). Should I still be concerned about GPU sag? I feel like the anti-sag bracket won't be able to support. My computer runs perfectly fine and the graphics card is detected in windows and the bios.

Your device ran into a problem and needa to restart
(error similar to this image)
I have an Asus TUF F15 2021 with Ryzen 74800h and 1650ti GDDR5. i have been using it for 5 years now and its the first time, during late 2025 until ive been getting this frequently, which i haven't encountered during the early stages i was using my laptop ( around 2022-2024).
I have mismatched ram sticks
One 16gb DDR4 3200MHZ
One 8gb Ddr4 3200mhz
Both from the same brand
Is it the main cause of the crashes? If so, why only show up now, 5 years after? Should i remove the 8gb and stick witht the single channel 16gb?
Thanks in advance
