Windows 10: Laptop Shuts Straight Off During Windows 10 Upgrade

ok, you used the windows update am i correct? Because i used the Media Creation Tool and not the windows update....so i will try that....but according to a lot of other people this problem is because of the excessive heat by the computer...so i will try removing my battery and leaving the charger plugged in and put my laptop in blasting AC so it will remain cool and ill let you all know what happens...

 

hi guys here, i finally got windows 10 to install properly, i think it was mostly the heat....but lemme tell you how i did it..

Firstly, go to the battery icon in your taskbar, and press more power options..then go to your current battery profile (mines was balanced) and press change plan settings, then go to change advanced settings...now find processor power management..under that go to system cooling policy and change both of them to passive hit apply and ok and close those off.

Secondly, run the windows 10 setup, but just before u do that, remove your battery and i placed two books under my laptop for leverage....and for extra cooling i put two fans on high speed directly at the vents and made sure that the laptop was cool at all times......then i ran the windows 10 setup...

Thirdly, i let it run by itself and didnt interfere with it until prompted to press accept or whatever the case may be...
then it installed by itself, i currently have windows 10 pro and it works great....

Hope it works for you guys,
Cheers Mates..

 

Thanks a lot josiah , mine was same problem as yours . Researched everywhere , downloaded set up file many times and every time laptop turns off suddenly . My laptop also overheated while switching off and i thought that it might be a driver problem and heat wont be a big issue . I exactly followed your instructions and put my laptop under an airconditioner while installation , at last finally got windows 10 . Thank you once again

 

your welcome bro, its my job to serve u guys xD

 

Step 1. Charge laptop to full


Step 2. Unplug all usb ports "printer, mouse, speakers........their should be 0 usb ports used". Also unplug power cord!!


Step 3. Blow all fans/vents dust free best as u can.


Step 4. Install Windows 10 as normally.


Step 5. Your laptop will shut off again.


Step 6. When laptop is shut off remove battery and press power key down for 15 seconds.


Step 7. Replace battery.


Step 8. Reinstall power cord as well. Power back on laptop (don't press anything).


Step 9. You should see a flash saying trying to reinstall where Windows left off.


Step 10. Enjoy!!! Also if this works I just ask you jam my song and subscribe to my YouTube if u feel the need to after!!! (SIMPLE - Keep On The Lights (Comp. Tony Fadd) - YouTube).

Bro, i dont mean to be rude....BUT I SOLVED THIS ISSUE A LITTLE WHILE NOW!!!.....Didn't u read my last post....and noticed this thread is SOLVED....Come on Man!!! Don't Waste your time...as the solution i placed has worked for all who saw this thread

 

Solutions that work for one device may not work for another.

Options are always good.

 

I'm guessing, considering the 25% - 30% mark is the point where drivers are installed, some of the new drivers are not compatible with your system.
Did you do a proper compatibility check before going for the upgrade? Or did you just directly go for the download?

 

All adds up to me as they all reboot at the 30% mark and it seems as if the reboot is checking for temp and decides to not boot.

Sounds feasible, anyway!!

 

wait did u have the same problem?
if so, just unplug the battery and put it under AC or a fan and it will be good....read my above posts for a bigger explanation

 

I had exactly the same problem and I didn't think this would work, but it did. Thanks, Josiah.

 

Your very welcome mate

 

The problem lies that the system becomes overheated due to the long process of the installation of windows 10. I tried this upgrade twice and the system shuts down on copying files stage. However, with your process of troubleshooting, i was able to upgrade my system to Windows 10. Appreciate that you have posted the comment, otherwise, i was frustrated in upgrading.

 

Again.....you're very welcome mate....yeah it is a bit unbelievable but this works and im happy to say that i havent had any problems with my windows 10 since and this seems to be a pretty rare problem because ive had a couple of friends say that it worked fine for them so im glad it worked for you....Cheers...

Also on a side note....this does no harm to your pc...this is just a method of cooling it down for the install to be complete....

Cheers Guys,
