Windows 10: issues getting computer restart GPO to work on local computers

Hello everyone. I'm having an issue with getting my weekly restart GPO to work properly. I have tested the script being used for the command on my system and it works just fine. However, it appears that the Task Scheduler task that was applied via GPO failed to run properly. I received the following error code: 0x80070057 bad parameter. This is the code I'm running with the task/GPO: C:\Windows\System32\shutdown.exe /r /c "1 hour until automated computer restart. Please save your work." /t 6000 /fI am running the task this way as I am inexperienced at linking BAT files on the DC and am not

Hi,

Failure to access the Start menu and missing icons can be caused by a corrupted user profile. To isolate your concern, we suggest that you perform the following steps to trigger
Safe Mode through the Windows Recovery Environment (WinRE) option and create a new user account. To do this, follow the steps below:

• Improper shutdown process
  • Turn on your computer. When the Windows logo is visible, unplug the power source of your computer. Perform this step three times.
  • On the fourth time that you turn on your computer, just simply wait for the
    Windows Recovery Environment (WinRE) window to appear.
• On the Choose an option screen, select Troubleshoot > Advanced options > Startup Settings and click
  Restart.
• Once your computer restarts, you will see a list of options. Press the
  F4 key to start your computer in Safe Mode.

Once you were able to access Safe Mode, we suggest that you follow the steps provided on this
link on how to create a local user or administrator
account in Windows 10. By doing this, we may identify if this is an account related issue. The link also contains all the necessary information including the step on how to set up a new account in Windows 10.

Give us an update with the outcome.

It's a laptop and it has a battery so I don't think that will work unless you want me ripping out the battery repeatedly

 

computer restarts

when i try to run games in general, this computer restarts. the games i tried are age of empires, counter strike 1.6, dod, and star wars battlefront. the computer will restart after ~5mins of gaming. it will also restart if you have music playing, watching a video and having a browser open.
it can even restart when the computer is running idle, on occasion
i downloaded atitool, when i scan for artifcats, it will scan for 2 mins and then the computer restarts. heh

im thinking its a hardware issue, i downloaded avg free, and this computer has no apparent viruses. could it be a video card? perhaps RAM?
the RAM in this computer is some random brand called 'DRAM masters', so i doubt it is well made compared to cosair or something like that.
i went to administrative tools and checkd the event viewer, nothing is wrong with that...
PSU? Mobo?

this has been happening for about a year, then i replaced the hard drive, reformatted and the problem still occured. this is why i thnk it is a hardware issue.

is there some software that can monitor the computers performance?
