  1. My computer is turning off unexpectedly - not blue screen, just suddenly off


    I've been having a weird problem where my computer just shuts off. This is a laptop and the battery is fine, but it suddenly shuts off - with no warning at all - like you pulled the power cord out of the power supply on a standard desktop machine. One second it's fine, the next second it's off. When looking at the event log, it has an entry after some of the normal boot-up entries that says "The previous system shutdown at 10:29:55 PM on ‎3/‎26/‎2021 was unexpected." This latest one happened when I was not at the computer, as has been the case, usually. However, one happened to me a week or so ago where I was sitting there working and, bam!, the damn thing turned off instantly. It's not a blue screen. It's OFF. And it's plugged in, so it shouldn't be a battery issue and the battery seems fine, anyway. There is no MiniDump file, since it's not a blue screen. But I did get an event viewer log and system info log today after coming into my office, finding it off, and booting it up.


    Any thoughts on this would be appreciated. It's rather irritating.

    :)
