[CRASH] PC crashes after games.

For some reason since last patch, my laptop would crash after every game or two. At first I assumed it was a result of overheating as it never happened before, but with further tries it became a regular occurrence. The whole PC would freeze and would need to resort to restarting. This will only happen after the game had ended and I go to the post game screen. My laptop is a MSI GE72 2QD Apache Pro running Windows 10.

UPDATE 9/25/2016: After the 6.19 patch the crashing problem moved from after games to as the loading screen starts up. Something must have changed to cause the PC to crash at the beginning of the game instead of after.

UPDATE 10/17/2016: Problem is still happening, however, the crashes are inconsistent, testing it out in custom games sometimes I'll be able to play a full game, but during the game I'll experience major lag on the PC, the same type of lag that happens before a crash. Other times the PC crashes during the loading screen or seconds after the game starts. The crashing is too inconsistent to trust the PC to play a normal game.

UPDATE 11/5/2016: FIXED! So the problem that was causing the crash before the game was issues with the XBOX game bar that is found in MSI models. A fix to that issue can be found here. http://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/8637-game-bar-turn-off-windows-10-a.html

However their is a separate fix to the crashes that were happening after the game. The problem for me was the compatibility settings being set for Windows 8. The fix to that problem is by going to

C:\Riot Games\League of Legends\RADS\solutions\lol_game_client_sln\releases\0.0.1.151\deploy

there you will see League of Legends as an application, right click it and go to properties. When the properties window comes up click on the compatibility tab. There you will see a drop down menu under something that says "Run this program in comparability mode for:"

Set that to Windows 7. And that is how I fixed the problem on my end. Hope this helps anyone that has the same problem.

Mine is a MSI GE72 2QF Apache Pro on windows 10, and I too have had the same problem shortly after patch 6.18 was released. Only that it would freeze at random during any match, and that the audio is completely bugged out with constant buzzing and interruptions whenever a champ spoke or a team fight broke out. I've updated multiple drivers and consulted with MSI support to no avail. This is the only board I've found connecting the laptop to league (Other GE72 players have had BSOD on other games recently). I recommend playing on another device in the meantime. Hopefully a solution will find it's way here.

Mine is a MSI GE72 2QF and it's having the same problem. Any luck finding a fix? This is very annoying.
