HI I recently bought a new laptop from someone and is perfect. But i have one issue... I always keep the charger plugged in but the two times i didn't, after about 30mins the laptop shutdown. Upon turning it on with the charger plugged in a screen came up saying .... 'no boot device press any key to reboot'. I fixed this however by pressing 'f2' and getting into the boot menu. In the boot menu it showed that there was 1 drive to select proritys on. (EVen though It says i have a (C: ) with 100GB and (D: ) with 400GB in 'This PC') I fixed it by reselecting the 1 drive there and saved and exited. Could anyone please help me on why this happened? (Even though i fixed it, it will become annoying)

See if this helps:

right click start button
choose powershell (admin)
type SFC /scannow and press enter

here are a few others - above is option 2 here: http://windowsreport.com/windows-10-automatic-repair-couldnt-repair-pc/
once its completed, copy/paste this command into same window:
Repair-WindowsImage -Online -RestoreHealth and press enter
SFC fixes system files, DISM cleans image files, re run SFC if it failed to fix all files and restart PC

C & D are just partitions on 1 drive, is my guess. You can confirm that by looking at disk management. You probably have a 500gb hdd in it. What make/model laptop is it?

It would appear to me that your battery isn't very good if it only runs for 30 minutes without being plugged in

Yes they are partitions of the same drive. The laptop is an ASUS N56JR

Intel Core i7 4700 HQ processor
15.6" Full HD screen
NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 760M 2GB GDDR5
Blu-ray Player

I just got a replacement battery today :)

I assume you on windows 10 - From desktop, go to settings/update & security/recovery
in the right column, under Advanced start up, click restart now button
this will load you into a blue menu
choose troubleshoot
choose advanced
choose start up repair - this will scan PC and maybe fix this - will ask for logon info

this will check the boot files and start up process to make sure PC is okay, I expect it is since this only happened once?
