Are the slaves actually crashing, or are these stalled reports false positives? If it’s the latter, check to make sure that your dates and times are synchronized across all machines on your farm (nodes and workstations).

After about 20 minutes they start again by themselves. So, I don’t think they are crashing. I’ll have the IT guy take a look at the clocks. Thanks!
