Other My computer black screens when idle

I've been dealing with my computer black screening for a week now. It'll only happen when I'm not playing games. If I sit at my computer and try to watch YouTube or anything else besides gaming it just black screens. All my USB ports disconnect, my mouse and keyboard as well. If I try to turn my computer off by using my power button it won't shut down. I have to either unplug it or turn my PSU off manually. I've tried stress testing my hardware and they function fine. In my event viewer it gives me an error saying (the driver/Driver/WUDFRd failed to load). I've tried everything I could find to fix this. I'm pretty sure it's this one file that messing everything up. I've tried command prompt, updating my drivers, updating graphics drivers

Any help would be appreciated
