    Error 6008 unexpected shutdown


    I started running nicehash miner and my computer completely shut down, and wouldn’t even try to start up for about 15 minutes. Got it back up, the battery said it was full despite it not being plugged in when it was off, I ran nicehash on a fresh install, same thing. Got it back on again, it shutdown overnight without me doing anything to it according to the system logs.

    It hasnt shut off at all since, but I feel like it’s wishful thinking to think it won’t ever happen again. Anyone know what might be going on?

    :)

    Unexpected Shutdown

    Hi

    Please see response to your questions below

    • Did you make any changes on the computer prior to this issue?
    No changes other than about a month ago reinstalling W10.

    • What troubleshooting steps have you done so far?
    Other than checking updates have successfully installed, none as not sure approach to take.

    • What was the exact error code/message you have received?
    No error code or message received. On the first occasion I was looking at outlook and without any warning the PC shutdown. It was almost as if it was a desktop (it is a laptop) and the power stopped. The laptop was plugged into the mains and in addition
    the battery had a full a full charge.

    On restarting the laptop no error message came up and I only noted a small difference in boot up, that for a short period a blue screen was displayed (not normally seen on boot up) and then the start screen appeared for me to log in.

    As mentioned previously the only reference to this is from the log which in the summary states that there was an unexpected shutdown.
