Windows 7 BSOD/Black screen after being idle for some time
Hi,
A friend got this computer that is constantly crashing/freezing many times a day almost everyday after being idle for some time. Its random sometimes is 5 minutes, 10, 15 and so on.
The computer is a bit old, just used to browse the web, print and all that pretty basic stuff.
Doesn't have many programs installed, its pretty clean (or not...)
He said its been like that since ever.
I tried everything I could think of:
-Updated all the drivers
-Disabled Hibernation/Sleep/Standby
-Disabled Screensaver
-Disabled the "turn off hard disk after.." featured
-Installed latest windows updates
-Checked hard drive for errors (no bad sectors or anything)
-Ran SFC
-Checked temperatures (all good)
-Ran memtest86 (all good)
So I'm out of ideas.... I think the only explanation would be some driver or some software messing up...
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance
