I've been having an issue lately that isn't totally consistent in that it doesn't happen every single time, however, it's happening enough that it's clearly not a random hiccup either.
Basically while I'm actively playing and recording Project Zomboid footage, sometimes my pc kinda "soft locks" on me killing my keyboard, mouse, mic and even clearly reboots my cooling system since I can see all the lighting turn off then back on again. It does eventually come back but it's a good 10 seconds of nothing whenever it does it. My PC doesn't actually fully crash either or blue screen, the game itself will still be running I just have no controls. OBS will also stay open and recording to some extent, I don't think it's fully capturing but it visually shows it's still recording and I can safely stop it with my StreamDeck and the footage is fine. It also doesn't leave anything in the Event Viewer logs either making tracking down the issue a pain. Oh and my AIO is Corsair brand so I have the iCUE software (which is terribly buggy) which is probably worth noting.
Not sure if it's worth listing all my PC specs or what but I can if requested. Right now I assume its some sort of software level conflict between OBS and iCUE? I'm not entirely sure how relevant Project Zomboid is since I can play it without recording and it never happens. I also haven't recently recorded footage for any other games either to make that sort of judgement. But like I said, it doesn't happen every time either. I have easily recorded over an hour of footage without a hitch and then other times it'll freeze up like this after 5, 10 even 20 minutes.
I'll also be posting this on related Corsair/iCUE forums (maybe general windows ones as well) but just wanted to see if others had encountered anything like this before?
