Do you have any Minidumps?
Lid down suspends the PC, so suspend is not working correctly. Some manufacturers have difficulty with power management. I use Lenovo and power management works fine on it.

I suggest you look for, download and upgrade BIOS, Chipset, Video, Power Management drivers and when all installed run Windows Update - Critical and Recommended. Do a final restart and test.

System file checker didn't find any integrity violations.
I changed the seetings on the setting for the lid to do nothing
Did you update all the drivers I suggested?

you find minidumps in Windows\minidumps
What do you mean by crash? BSOD? If yes then find the minidump file and load it here for analysis.
I run SFC /SCANNOW and seems to have fix the problem.

Thanks for your help
