Notebook Randomly Shutting Off

Hi,

I was just surfing the net when the notebook shut off and restarted randomly.

I checked in the event viewer and it said this:

Critical: The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. This error could be caused if the system stopped responding, crashed, or lost power unexpectedly.

Please someone check this and see what I can do to fix it.

Hi,

I am not getting any BSOD's, but it is just shutting off by itself randomly.

Ok, I will do a stress test with Prime95, but is it necessary to run it for 12 hours straight? If so, can I use the notebook during the stress test?

Thanks,
Slasher

Hi,

Jonathan_King - Ok, I won't use the notebook during the Prime95 test. One question. Should I upload the BSOD report first then do the Prime95 test or vice versa?

Richnrockville - I intend soon to undervolt the notebook, as well as clean the vents and fans and stuff, and hopefully even apply some Arctic Silver 5. But right now, I am using a laptop cooler to cool the notebook.

Thanks,
Slasher

Hi,

Ok thanks, I will do the test first, then upload a BSOD report.

That won't matter I guess, since the Test will take 12 hours and your work would probably take less than 10 hours. Sorry I am bothering you by the way.

Thanks,
Slasher

Hi,

Ok thanks, I'm gonna run it later on overnight while I sleep!
