Hi,
My laptop shuts down randomly. It shuts down and stays that way. Only the LED indicating power is connected, is on. When I start again it starts normally. No error messages, BSODs, or anything.
The CPU temp used to be around 99°C. I thought that was the problem so I changed a setting on the BIOS to reduce the CPU speed/power and now the temp stays around 60–70°C.
I have seen that if I start Photoshop or watch a movie or start browsing or heavy downloading, it shuts down more often. But some tasks like playing old games, etc., last quite a while. But otherwise, it shuts down in about 5–30 mins.
This used to happen a few months ago too, but that was the power adapter. (I don't use the battery.) But now I've tested with a different adaptors with the same results.
I don't think the problem is with the power or heating. I need advice.
And it also has an nVidia card.
