The machine comes loaded with Windows Vista, about 6 months ago I bought an SSD drive and upgraded to Windows 7 using a legitimate copy of Window 7 Professional.
All was fine, worked beautifully until after a while it started randomly shutting down. Not like "shutting down" I mean just plain 1 second on, next second off, as if someone had pulled the power. This seemed to get more frequent.
I reinstalled Win 7, again all was fine then it started again, after a couple more reinstalls (I am persistant) and the same ting happening after a few weeks eachtime, I thought it must be Win 7 on this hardare and gave up, reinstalling Win Vista, which never does it.
But then 2 of my friends got tthis laptop, and both on Win 7, neither with this issue..
So I thought it must be the SSD drive, so sent it back and got a new one.
Did it all over again, all was fine for 3 weeks then it started just shutting down again.. no warning, just off.
I disabled the auto shutdown in the advanced settings, but I don't get a dump file..
I made sure the ps isn't stopping the hard drives, in fact I have tried absolutely everything I can think off with no success...
I really need ideas and help, or its back to Vista for me
So over to you..
