Hello all of you good people.

Few days ago I received an laptop to check whats wrong with it. I thought that would be very easy to find out but .. I was wrong.

Whenever left idle, computer freezes - Windows 8.1 - mouse , keyboard nothing responds and I have to hard reset it.
( at first it only froze when I was connected on internet through wifi but now it freezes even when not)

I ran numerous tests around and nothing so far helped me.

Did fresh and clean install of Win 8.1 - still issue ( 4x )
Did chkdsk - all ok
Did Memtest86 - all ok
Checked event viewer - nothing suspicious
Formatted harddrive completely. - still issue.

At this point I dont really have any idea whats going on or why it freezes. Any help would be appreciated.

Notebook is ASUS X553MA

Thank you for stopping by.
