Windows 10: Event ID 42

I have a Dell 6540 laptop that keeps going into Sleep mode, even though it is set in the Power Settings to never go to sleep. Event Viewer is showing ID 42, reason battery. I have tried replacing the fan, the battery, and even the charger. None of the above have made a difference. Someone suggested using Speedfan to find out why event ID 42 is happening, but I'm really not sure how to accomplish that. Does anyone have any suggestions? Other than it going into Sleep mode, this laptop works great, so I really would hate to part with it.

I'm 100% certain I followed all the steps correctly. I triple-checked it. But no dice...

Hi, suggest you try Hard Disk Sentinel (trial) - gives a great quick analysis (SSDs too).

Please post the results.

The first step is to run the maintenance utilities related to hard drives, starting with CHKDSK and the utilities available from the manufacturer for that specific brand.
