Windows 7 freezes after a period of inactivity
I have this problem with Windows and it's getting really annoying. At first i thought it only happened when recovering from sleep mode but i have since been proved wrong.
I have gone into Power Options and set my laptop to never go into sleep, never dim the screen and never turn off the display. I then went into advanced power settings and set the hard drive to never turn off. This has not helped at all!
I have since realised that Windows 7 will only freeze after a period of inactivity whether there is an open program or not.
Now, i know this is a problem which is effecting a lot of people so has anyone got any suggestions as to what may be the cause?
