Ubuntu 20.04 Crashes

Asked by Md. Sadikul Amin Sadman

I recently bought a pc. After installing ubuntu it constantly crashes after about 1 hour.
The screen remains frozen. Sometimes pc doesn't restart or shutdown or start. Mainly the gui remains stuck. Then the pc needs to hard reset. I clean reinstalled Ubuntu again but the problem remains the same. During the reinstallation,the installer also crashed once.

I am using an old monitor with hdmi to vga converter.

Installation Info:
----------------------------
I used GPT partition scheme to install ubuntu by enabling uefi from the bios.
