Hello everyone, lately I had a lot of crashes on my Helios 300, mostly I got errors like VIDEO_SCHEDULER_INTERNAL_ERROR.,
I tried a lot of fixes, but realy I think only one worked (7). So here are some solutions that may work for you. 
1. Thermal paste and thermal paste change
2. Scanning your drives for corrupt files
3. Change your battery settings from High Perfomance to Balanced 
4. Reinstal your drivers
5. Scan your PC with antivirus program 
6. Check for windows updates and if there any update them 
7. Most importantly if youre using "Predator Sense" don't increse your GPU speed to turbo or fast just keep it on normal. Its because when NVIDIA pushed new drivers they mostly just increse your GPUs clock speed and that causes crashes, because your PC can not keep up with power demands or cooling demands. Because the new drivers have increased your GPUs limits, you can see that your temperatures are a lot higher versus when your Helios was new even if you changed your thermal paste lately. If turning off overclocking does not help try using programs to degrece your GPUs clock speed with programs like "MSI Afterburner" and etc.
Decrese clock speed about to -200Mhz
Hopefully this will help you, and you can get your sweet "Victory Royales" without crashes.

Acer Predator Helios 300 ( Gtx 1050ti ).

    Interesting. Did you have issues with the driver Acer installed originally?

    I had chrashes when shift+tab while playing league. If talking about League Of Legends my temperatures are around 60°C-65°C. I recently changed my thermal paste.
