    Laptop switches off after being unplugged for a long time even though battery is still charged

    Hi
    I have been struggling with my laptop that will be on for about an hour and then it suddenly switches off. When I switch it on again, there is no login necessary. It goes into a sort of sleep mode but I don’t have such a setting set on my laptop.

    Also, when using anything that requires a decent amount from the graphics driver, like CS GO, it displays an error that the game has been blocked. I have rolled the graphics driver back, uninstalled and reinstalled the driver and it still does the same thing.
    Please assist with this problem

      Hi
      Did you checked the GPU temperatures to make sure it’s not overheating? can you snap shot error message?

        What Power Plan are you using: Balanced, High Performance or Power Saver?

        What is the setting to turn off the display when on battery?

          Hi Micky2605, Welcome to PCHF!

          Does the computer turn off randomly or can you make it turn off by running a graphically intensive game like CS: GO?

          Posting a screenshot of the error message would help as well as telling us what power plan your computer is using.

          Thanks.
