Kill Switch update: We have temporarily Kill Switched the Forgotten Ruins Map due to an issue that causes players to become stuck in place. The Map will remain out of rotation until this is resolved.

Crashes my PC when launching the game

Step 1 : Boot the game

Step 2 : Notice how the game crashes before the title screen finishes loading

Additional information

It will pause for a moment on the sparks/embers (after the cutscene, before you press space to continue) and then go for a second and then crash. Screen goes black, all the LEDs go off, fans stop working, I have to flip the switch on the power supply to get it to restart as the power button will not work.

I have:

Reinstalled Dead by Daylight

Reinstalled Windows

Upgraded from a Nvidia 1050 to a 1650

Cleared my Appdata folder

Verified Local Files for DBD (Multiple times)

Set the game to launch at 16:9 resolution

Set the game to run in windowed mode

Changed the type of cord and sockets that connect my video card to my monitor (From HDMI to DVI)

Turned off all game overlays

Set the game to run as admin

Double checked that it was allowed in the windows firewall

Defragged my C: Drive (I was at a loss by this point.)

The windows crash log just says that windows experienced an unexpected shutdown with no other helpful info.

The problem remains and is extremely intermittent, some days it doesn't crash at all, some days it only crashes. The number of other processes seems irrelevant as it will crash with nothing else running and work fine while I have a twitch stream and discord going. I am at a loss as to what else I could possibly do, any potential tips would be extremely welcome.
