Computer keeps Crashing when idle....
#1
I own a Dell desktop that runs windows 7 Home premium with 4 gb of ram;  Whenever I leave the computer idle for more than 10  or 15 minutes, or if I attempt to put it to sleep, it crashes.  I've changed my virus software, made sure there were no physical obstructions , ensured that the fan was clean and the pc wasn't overheating, I've monitored the cpu performance etc with the resource monitor,  run maleware bytes, updated all software and drivers, disabled extensions and plug-ins, reduced the number of programs I've installed to just a handful and I've performed a clean install of windows 7 with no success;  Can anyone please help me?

The scan didn't reveal anything significant.

Please run this scan the same way dism /online /cleanup-image /checkhealth    This might sit on 20% for awhile. Tell me if it finds any thing and whether it can be fixed.

Sometimes I get the blue screen and other times it just shuts down.
