HP Slimline Desktop - 290-a0046

Previous ROM BIOS upgrades caused a problem where my HP Slimline Desktop PC would freeze when idle. After weeks of investigation I discovered that Windows 10 would attempt to synchronize time and update the time on the motherboard. This would cause the freeze. I worked around the problem by turning off time synchronization in Windows 10. I finally upgrade the ROM BIOS to F.35 and this fixed the time synchronization freeze problem. Anyone who had this problem on a Slimline 290-a0046 PC should upgrade to F.35.
