I wanted to make sure I updated this thread after resolving my issues.
It was either a dying Nvme drive or the port itself. The C-drive would fail or become disconnected, leaving windows and eve to hang in just the ram until it died. Not sure still why Eve caused the issue and no other games, but please, regardless of what your disk check programs say, in my case Samsung Magician, Try installing to a new disc both windows and eve, or try a new port. We’ve been stable since moving to a new drive in a lower port. Take care all! o7
