  1. Windows 11 freezing crashing only when idle. Please help!


    My PC is constantly and at random, freezing/crashing only when idle. The screen and PC are all still on but everything is frozen. Mouse doesn't move, can't access anything, no keys work, nothing. No warnings, no BSOD, nothing. While I am using my PC I have no problems but once it is idle, it freezes/crashes at any random time can be minutes or after many hours. I have to do a hard shutdown. Everything has been working fine until this last week. I haven't installed any new software or hardware, just performed routine updates on existing software & drivers. My PC is only 7 months old.I h

    all games crash!

    I suggest you run rthdribl > http://www.daionet.gr.jp/~masa/archives/rthdribl_1_2.zip
    Increase the window size step by step and watch your vga temps permanently.
    What happens?
    If it crashes, run at stock speeds as suggested before and retry.

    P.S.: When your system locks, does the display signal turn off after a time?
    Stuttering sound or no sound at all when freezing?
    What X1800XT model do you own exactly?
