I was playing Team Fortress 2 and it crashed to desktop. Never had this happen before. Event viewer told me the following:

Faulting application name: hl2.exe, version: 0.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x639426e4
Faulting module name: ntdll.dll, version: 10.0.19041.3324, time stamp: 0x7f9ebe8b
Exception code: 0xc0000374
Fault offset: 0x000e6d83
Faulting process id: 0x854
Faulting application start time: 0x01d9e2ec41b0affa
Faulting application path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Team Fortress 2\hl2.exe
Faulting module path: C:\Windows\SYSTEM32\ntdll.dll


What does this mean?
 
I remember that ntdll.dll has something to do with kernel functions and 0xc0000374 is heap corruption.
I'd say this is just Windows being Windows, layers of crap covering layers of legacy crap. If it only happened once you can just ignore it, it was probably a driver taking too long doing "something".
 
Is it happened one time or every times you launch TF2 ?

so far only this once. I'll keep an eye out for it.

I did only recently update my drivers to play Starfield so that might have been it. No problems so far.
