Why does my PC keep restarting when it's idle?

Asked by TechWiz42
I've been having this frustrating issue with my PC for months now. It randomly restarts if I leave it idle for just 10-15 minutes without touching it. Occasionally, it also restarts while I'm actively using it, but that's rare. I've stress tested both the CPU and GPU and couldn't replicate the problem. I'm not sure how to figure out what's causing these random restarts. Are there any logs I can check to help diagnose this issue?

You might want to try running a tool like Specify to check your PC specs. That information can help pinpoint any potential hardware issues. Hereโ€™s a link to it: [specify](https://github.com/Spec-ify/specify/releases/download/v1.4.0/Specify_noring0.exe). Once you have your specs, share the result link, and we can dig deeper!
