Windows 10 hang after long time idle

Post by sew333 » 26 Mar 2021, 15:19

Hi my pc:108500K stock 4800mhz



2x16 GB DDR4 GSKILL 3000mhz XMP



Seasonic Tx-850 Ultra Titanium



Gigabyte Rtx 3090 Gaming OC



Aorus Z490 Pro Gaming



1 TB SSD

Drivers 461.72

I have updated Windows 10 to H20,the newest version. I installed windows 1 month ago with new pc. So far so good,games not crashing all stable.My pc is on 24 hours. Today was idle 5-6hours in desktop. After few hours when i go to use pc, i run Google chrome and then all starts slowly responding. I mean i was able to touch/move mouse, but all stops slowly responding. Chrome,search bar,start button stops responding. When i make CTRL ALT DELETE ,then black screen apeared with blue circle ( instead of mouse arrow ) and then mouse stops responding and keyboard. Caps Lock stops worked. So Windows 10 get locked.So i force hard reset.






Is there somewhere my pc not stable or its a windows thing?



Like i said pc was idle 5-6 hours ,when i go to use pc, i turned on google chrome and then all starts slowly hanging. I checked EVENT VIEWER: Nothing,0 entries about any errors.Thx.



ah ps

NZXT cam was on background and epic launcher + steam.



PS:Karhu Ram Test for 3 hours finished without errors. Dont have crashes in game.
Pc is not overclocked. Only XMP on.

If it only happened once, I'd forget about it. Some kind of fluke.

Also, you should do a full reboot from time to time, not just hibernate. Windows isn't the most stable OS out there when running for extended periods of time without a full reboot. Full reboot, not quick reboot (aka "fast startup".)

Hello RealNc. Thank you for reply. Yes it happened once,not repeated since. I tested all games: battlefield 5, quake 2 rtx, control,Serious Sam 4, Metro Exodus no issues , no crashing.

So no worries about that one fluke?
