BSOD :: Repeated Computer Shutdowns (on Battery Power Only)
Dec 25, 2015
On battery power, my laptop shuts off with no BSOD after 20 minutes of light use (web browsing). Laptop will not restart on battery power - only when plugged in. When restarted (plugged in) the battery level shows 85%.
Laptop diagnostics say the battery is fine - 99% charge capacity. HP diagnostics say the battery is fine.
HP 455 notebook running windows 10 64 bit. When plugged in, the laptop works perfectly. I see kernel power error event 41 task 63

I have a relatively new Dell Inspiron 7000 series (7548). Installed Windows 10 and about 15 seconds after logging in I keep getting an error message about an internal power failure. What an absolute f#$% up. I have never had a problem with the laptop. I tried the Restore System Point option but it says that there aren't any system points saved.

I've been having two issues for the past few weeks. After a while, (it varies time wise) the start menu and search bar become unresponsive and will no longer open. The only way to make them respond again is to restart; however, this comes with another issue. It will hang forever on the "Restarting..." screen unless I do a hard shutdown.
On the other hand, a hardware error keeps appearing and it appears to talk about an Nvidia driver.
After checking the reliability monitor, it shows that I have two critical faults:
I've tried numerous troubleshooting steps, which I will list below, and none of them have provided any lasting results:
Disabling Cortana (worked at first, now the issue is back)A clean install of the latest Nvidia drivers, twice on two separate days (fixed the hardware error for a day, now it's back)sfc /scannow (It shows no integrity violations)Installing any and all windows updates (nada)
I even chatted with a support agent at Microsoft and the only thing he could tell me was that "User Accounts are being corrupted and that Microsoft is researching a fix". I'm confused how User Accounts interfere with the start menu and cause a hardware error. This never happened when I was on Windows 8.1, so I am confused as to what has changed (other than the OS version, of course).

so i migrated from windows 7 to windows 10.im running windows 10 pro,64 bit,4gb ram on intel i3 processor.in windows 7 when i click on the battery icon i can choose the power plan setting immediately. but in windows 10,when i click the battery icon the power plan option is no longer there.i had to go through advanced power setting to get to the power plan settings.so i wonder is there any way to get the power plan setting to show directly when i click the battery icon?i knew there was a workaround by editing registry and showing it by right clicking on desktop instead but i prefer the old way.

Now that I've upgraded to Windows 10, I can no longer manage my slideshows for my desktop.
In Win 7 and Win 8, I could manage whether or not to shuffle my slideshow and whether to pause the slideshow when on battery power. You can see that screen by looking at my tablet, which is still Win 8.1:
Now both options are missing. I found a forum thread on how to fix the shuffle using regedit, but I have found no way to manage the pausing of the slideshow while on battery power. It is currently stuck on pause. How do I get it unstuck?
This only happens when I am on battery power, not when I have my laptop plugged in. When my laptop is plugged in, the slideshow proceeds like it should.
(I really hope they add both those options back to the options screen on the slideshow...)

Updated my wife's laptop with windows 10 and now is missing the battery meter (charging, power left also no warning on screen when low power) going to the notification area properties the option to turn power icon is completely greyed out and unselectable. Fully up to date and have ran a sweep for errors with SFC/scannow and returned no errors.

I recently upgraded Windows 7 to Windows 10. When I power down the system from the menu, my computer does not completely turn off. The procedure I use is described below:
Click Windows_Start_button > Power > Shutdown
The system closes applications and appears to initiate a shutdown procedure. Everything appears to be shut off, but my mouse is still lit up. I do notice that the fan stops and everything else appears to be completely shut down. When I was running Windows 7 before my upgrade, my system completely powered down.
I have a dual boot system with Linux, and when I power down from Linux, the shutdown is complete, so I don't think I accidentally did anything to the hardware or BIOS.

I'm using Windows 10 Pro. I've lost the power level (battery) and the sound level control icons. What do I have to do to get them back? When I try to activate them they're grayed out.

My pc keeps on shutting down when I'm not using the mouse or keyboard for 5 - 10 minutes. This all started with the shortcut "shutdown.exe" thing. I've been using this shortcut with a code of (*time* -s -t) from windows 7, 8, 8.1 to shutdown my pc at a specific time. And when I used it on Windows 10, it started doing the registry error shutdowns (Light blue screen with SAD face).

Click on the start menu > Power > Shutdown.does not immediately shut down. I can continue to do tasks for about 30seconds. The computer suddenly switches over to the "Shutting Down" screen with green/blue/<color> background.The computer takes several minutes to shut down.
I have attached a screenshot of Event Viewer logs for Microsoft/Diagnostics-Performance/Operational filtered to Event ID's 200-299 (Shutdown).I have also run a sfc /scannow but there were files that Windows was unable to fix.I'll include the log files as a zipped attachment.

Upgraded windows 7 to 10, now computer starts only after second power up. The first startup just freezes but second works OK. How to avoid this? In the mean time I just let computer sleep instead of shutdown.

Since installing Win 10 my computer will restart on its own if the electrical power "blips" or I unplug the unit and plug it back in. It did not happen when I had Win 7.
I also have to manually restart the system twice to get past the black screen with the blue window. If I go to safe mode using msconfig to change boot method I usually do not have the problem. But everything seems to slow down.

Computer was fine till I accidentally hit the power off button while trying to find the model number. Now I can't make it start at all. I tried restart. I tried shutting off and restarting. I have tried system restore and that did not complete successfully. Now I tried go back to previous build and it has said "restarting" for 30 minutes....

I had the Windows 10 DEV mode, battery died and only had three icons on the screen when it came back on. Tried to press the power button to have the screen turn off, and then it became completely unresponsive. Tried to do a soft reset, made it start vibrating repeatedly and had an entirely black screen or would just continuously restart after the AT&T symbol. Then after that, the screen stopped restarting and gave short repetitive vibrates. Soft reset and hard reset don't work.

For the past two months or so I have been having trouble with my PC getting BSOD and then shutting down. The really strange thing is that after this happens I am unable to reboot the computer for a few days. Any attempt to restart the computer immediately or even hours later or the next day just results in my computer just attempting to power on repeatedly. I can hear it powering up for a few seconds, fans spinning and lights in the case turn on but before it gets as far as displaying anything at all on the screen it will power off again and automatically try power back on again. This process will repeat itself indefinitely and because it never gets as far as displaying anything on the screen I can't boot into safe mode or do anything really to troubleshoot. However if I hold the power button in until the computer stops trying to turn on and leave it for 2-3 days then try power it on it will usually work perfectly as if nothing was ever wrong!
I really do not understand why this just randomly happens, I'm not usually doing anything intensive on the computer when it crashes and why can I not power the computer back on until days later??
Attached are screenshots showing my PC info and BSOD dumps as viewed in BlueScreenView.

When I walk away from my computer, I want it to go to sleep in 20 minutes. Sometimes I return after an hour, and the computer is still awake. There's obviously a rat in the woodpile here. Some software is changing my sleep setting from 20 minutes to "Never" without my permission. Sometimes it will sleep normally for a day or 2, then suddenly something resets my sleep time to "Never".
Is there a way I can block this activity, or re-set it to the proper 20 minute setting on each startup?BTW, I had the same problem in WIn7 and Win8. I was hoping it would be fixed in Win10. It has not.

I installed windows 10 about a week ago and all was working fine until I decided to try sleep mode a couple of days ago. I activated sleep mode but noticed after powering off that my PC was turning back on for a few seconds before powering back off in a loop. I didn't think to much of it and powered it off at the wall thinking that would clear any sleep errors. Well I've come back to use it after a couple days and it's still is stuck in a power loop of starting for 3 or 4 seconds before powering back off again in a continuous loop!
No chance to go into the bios, no sign of windows, just an endless power cycle!

Ever since I updated to windows 10, my computer automatically installs some Nvidia drivers from their servers. From past experience I know that my computer can get random BSOD's with the wrong Nvidia drivers installed (WinDBG always pointed towards nvdllmkm.sys). So previously when their was an Nvidia update that would cause crashes, I could install a previous version that I knew was working, however if I do this know I'm forced to go to Nvidia builds before the windows 10 update and afterwards windows update just reinstalls the windows 10 version it thinks I need.
So instead of trying to install previous Nvidia versions, I want to go into the root of the problem and find out why I'm getting these random BSOD's (BTW mostly happens when I'm watching a show, so could be temperature related?). Furthermore, I would prefer to stay on windows 10

I had a power outage a few days ago, and now my Windows 10 Pro has random Blue Screen problems.
My system was running fine before, did the Windows 10 Upgrade from Windows 8.1 Pro no problem.
I'm pretty sure the outage stopped my machine and potentially corrupted files.
I just happened to have new ram for the machine that I hadn't installed yet, so I put that in just to make sure my RAM was good.
The Blue Screens happen at random times, even when I haven't touched the machine after reboot. It will just blue screen again after a few minutes to a couple of hours.
I have the Samsung XP941 and ASRock Z97 Extreeme 9 Motherboard.
I'm hoping it hasn't damaged my Samsung card/HD.
It's hard to tell anything with that M.2 SSD drive.
No real diagnostic software or firmware stuff from Samsung anyways.

Every time I've logged into my account on my PC, it has rebooted (without showing any error message or crash screen) after a few minutes or so.
Opening event viewer, it shows event ID 41 at the time of reboot - the event before that is an event ID 6 stating "File System Filter 'FileCrypt' (10.0, ?2015?-?07?-?10T04:14:31.000000000Z) has successfully loaded and registered with Filter Manager." - I have never heard of filecrypt, the other events are all legitimate ones associated with the system booting up.
I have attempted booting in safe mode using msconfig, but that doesn't seem to work. So far, the only thing that works is by switching to an account that's barely used, where the computer runs perfectly well with no crashes.
I suspect a virus, but I haven't downloaded anything dodgy recently, and Avira (free) hasn't found anything either ...
Also, here's a link for a video taken of the reboot happening, as well as all open processes/services: [URL] ....
Specs:
CPU: AMD A8-6600K @ 3.9 Ghz
RAM: 8GB, 1 stick novatech 4GB, 1 stick HyperX fury 4GB (both 1600Mhz)
GPU: MSI R7 260 1GB GDDR5 (OC)
PSU: Jeantech 430W (not best make, but has been reliable for quite some time)
HDD: 1TB Western Digital "Green"
MOBO: Some Gigabyte FM2+ mATX cheapo board, can't remember exact name

since I upgraded the computer to Windows 10, when I want to turn off my PC, the screen turn off, but the light on the power button stays on. the computer turns off completely.
while if I want to put my computer on standby, the computer will not turn on more, I am forced to turn off the computer by holding the power button press.
