    My computer restarts when left idle for a few minutes


    Recently, I crashed when playing a video game and the game suggested me to check for RAM malfuction.I did as the suggestion with the Windows Memory Diagnostics tool and it said my memory has hardware failure.I tried turned on XMP, update BIOS of my motherboard and reinstall my RAM sticks as some other answers to similar suggestion but still to no avail.I had ran sfc /scannow and DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth as well as chkdsk command on CMD and Powershell in Admin mode but any of them show me useful information.And now my PC start to randomly restart when left idle for a few minut

    Computer restarts when left idle/untouched for 5 minutes

    Yesterday, my computer restarted itself when I left it idle to eat dinner. It happened again when I took a shower. Today, it's happened around 4 times. When I try to put my computer to sleep, it does the same thing and restarts itself. My power & sleep settings
    are set to never so I'm confused on why this is happening. I've also updated my Windows and checked for malware but nothing came up.

    Any idea what the issue could be or how to fix?

    I have done all of what you suggested, and it still freezes when idle for a few minutes. I have just performed a 1 hour + download. Five minutes later, while the computer was idle, Windows 10 froze.

    Hi, i just upgraded to windows 10 and i am having an issue.

    No matter what is on my screen, after a few minutes of being left idle my computer deadlocks(i think that is what it is called). I have to turn off the computer by holding the power button on the computer. I would really like some help.

    Thank you
