Freeze After Idle, Not a Sleeping Issue
Hello and thank you in advance.
I had WHS2011 installed on a rig and everything was fine. I decided to turn it into a HTPC and installed Windows 7. It then started freezing on idle. As long as I used it it was fine but when I left it alone it froze up. I tried a few things but finally just wiped the HD and started anew. Immediately the same problem.
I turned off every sleep/hibernation setting to no avail. There are no warning flags in Device Manager. My video card has the latest drivers.
The strange thing is it runs fine in Safe Mode and for about six hours or so under Diagnostic Boot but then freezes.
I am at a loss
The system is a i3 CPU with 8 gigs of RAM, GeForce 460GT GPU and a couple of SATA hard drives (350gig and 1.5tb)
Thoughts?
