MacOS Monterey crashes only in Zoom

Hi all,

I use Zoom in meetings one-on-one or in groups 1-3 times a week. About 1 out of 6 times, my computer crashes when Zoom has been going for 20-30 minutes. I have ran hard drive checkers, Etrecheck, posted on the Apple Community, searched online, tested for Malware, etc. I haven't found anything to fix this problem. I keep Zoom updated and my computer. This computer is an iMac 27", Retina 5K, Late 2015 model. I have 750 GB of free space, Zoom only uses at most 30% of CPU. I have 24 GB of RAM and I never even get close to 50% of memory used on Zoom. I can post Etrecheck report and answer questions but please someone give me some ideas to check!!

Sincerely,

Brian

I should mention, I have also shut off Hardware Acceleration option which apparently was causing computer crashes for others.
