Why does windows 10 crash when I watch netflix and play a game at the same time?

When I watch Netflix in firefox on windows 10 everything works fine.

When I play a game such as 'Victoria 2' or 'Europa Universalis IV' in windows 10 everything works fine.

When I watch something on Netflix at the same time as playing one of these games in windowed mode, windows 10 crashes. Comes up with a video error and has to restart the system.

Has anyone else encountered this problem, and does anyone know how to resolve it?
