System Freeze after a random period of inactivity (supposedly)
Hi all,
I didn't know where to put this thread, but because it has to do with system performance, I thought this might be the best place to post my issues with Win 10. Let me get straight to the point:
- Up-to-date Windows 10 install (ver 1511 OS Build 10586.36)
- I haven't tested it but it seems like when the computer becomes inactive after a period of time, the whole system freezes - the mouse isn't moving, the desktop remains static on the last windows that were there, the time remains static (it doesn't change), CTRL+ALT+DELETE doesn't work. Only solution seems to be to a hard reboot.
- In all other aspects the computer works fine: no virus (as determined by up-to-date version of Free Avast AV), SSD runs super fast, computer reboots, shuts down and goes to sleep perfectly. It's just when I am working on the computer and get sidetracked and when the computer becomes inactive, the computer freezes.
System Specs (other relevant aspects of my system can be viewed on my system specs page):
- Custom Built: E6700 non-OC
- 4 GB DDR2 RAM
- GTX 970 (up to date driver: 361.43)
Any thoughts? Is there some sort of log that I can call up to show what is causing this stall/freeze/hang-up?
Thanks again!
