Windows 7 x64 freezes when idle / need to shutdown
Hello all and for the future help...
About 10 days ago my computer started to freeze while idle (occasional BSOD crashes while gaming but not frequently). There is no other way than shutting it down with the power button. This happens every single time I leave it idle.
It happens when no specific apps are running except utorrent. I tried to leave it overnight without utorrent running and it still crashed.
I also already disabled any sleep option.
I updated my graphic card drivers and my bios. however, i was unable to update the firmware of my SSD (Crucial M4 128gb) as it didn't find my drive.
I built my system in October 11 and all components were new at the time and didn't change any hardwar since then.

OS Windows 7 Ultimate x64

I'm not that good with computers tech side but I hope you will be able to help me out.
Thanks in advance,
Actaka
UPDATE : I managed to update the firmware of my SSD. Still need to see if idle makes my computer freeze
