    After ruling out software factors such as viruses, the cause of the automatic shutdown of the laptop is likely to be a hardware failure or battery failure. If you can, use AC power first, then remove the battery. At this time, you should first install a motherboard health detection software (depending on the chipset and brand, some notebook manufacturers provide relevant software) to check whether the CPU temperature is too high.

    If there's a problem with the cooling system inside the laptop, it's no surprise that it causes an automatic shutdown. Generally speaking, problems with memory, hard disks, etc., do not automatically shut down immediately, so there is a great suspicion that the CPU temperature is too high. In addition, you can also run the laptop under the DOS operating system, when the load on the system is very small, if it does not crash, it means that a certain accessory is not working well.

    In many interactive Q&A platforms on the Internet, such as knowing, love asking, and various forums, netizens are often complaining. The reason is the problem of the computer restarting after the power is off. I also had this issue with my computer some time ago, and it automatically restarted when running a low-spec game like StarCraft Heroes III.

    After extensive searches on the Internet, there was no effective solution. The questioner often gets a long-winded, long-winded analysis that looks professional, but doesn't help to solve the problem of restarting the computer after it breaks. In these lengthy analyses, memory, graphics cards, and CPU issues are mentioned, which means that these analyses are telling the questioner:

    There can be problems in every place. "It's like saying nothing. Through the analysis and summary of the questions asked by many netizens, I found that most of the machines that have the problem of power-off and restart when playing games are old guys, and when playing games, the CPU occupancy rate will explode to 90% to 100%, which can be viewed in the "Performance" tab of the "Windows Task Manager", so the old machines with the above problems must be CPU problems, specifically, it is the heat dissipation problem of the CPU.

    When it comes to CPU heat dissipation problems, you first have to look at the CPU temperature in the BIOS, and generally find that the temperature and fan speed are normal, but when you play a game, it is impossible to see the CPU temperature change like in the BIOS, and the problem is at this time. If there is a problem with the CPU fan, whether you play a game or not, the power will be turned off and restarted after a while. So, it won't be a fan issue.

    It wasn't a fan issue, there must have been a problem with the heatsink and silicone, and sure enough, my computer was eventually solved by replacing the silicone. That is to say, due to the aging of the silicone, the heat of the CPU cannot be transmitted to the heat sink through its high efficiency, no matter how hard the fan turns, the heat will always be "short circuited" in the aging silica gel between the CPU and the heat sink to heat, in the case of low CPU usage, browsing the mesh, word documents, can survive, but when it comes to playing games, no matter how low the game configuration requirements, the CPU will not be able to bear it. I believe that for most old machines, users may often wipe the fan and oil it, but they don't pay much attention to silicone.

    90% of the problem of playing games is caused by the "thermal resistance" between the CPU and the heatsink. Therefore, friends who have the above problems must pay attention to check whether the heat sink is horizontally, smoothly and tightly pressed on the CPU through the silicone, and whether the silicone has been used for two years and has not been replaced. I believe that after solving the contact problem between the CPU chip and the heat sink, the problem of sluggish system and power failure and restart when playing games will be solved.

    It should be an automatic shutdown caused by high temperature caused by poor CPU heat dissipation, which is manifested in the operation of high CPU occupancy such as playing games and watching movies, and the computer will automatically power off without any warning for about 10 20 minutes. Even when the system is reinstalled, it will be automatically turned off.

    Component causes: The chips and other components on the motherboard are of poor quality, resulting in aging and damage to the motherboard, resulting in motherboard failure. Human causes: When using the computer, random hardware or indiscriminate metal objects touch various connectors, which leads to motherboard failure.

    Second, poor heat dissipation, which generally occurs when the CPU is overheated or the CPU is overloaded due to the long-term operation of the computer. If there is too much dust and the fan is not running properly, it will cause the mega disturbance to cause poor heat dissipation, causing the CPU to overheat, which will trigger the automatic power-off protection function. If this is the case, you need to guess the Yujie laptop fan, radiator.

    The reason why the laptop always shuts down automatically when playing games is that the memory is too large, and the computer program cannot respond normally, and the computer will make a restart instruction.

    Poor heat dissipation. Due to the influence of weather temperature or the insufficient number of revolutions of the CPU fan, the system overheats, which will lead to the automatic shutdown of the computer, it is recommended to check whether the system temperature is normal. : Memory reasons.

    When playing games, the computer will always shut down suddenly, which is usually caused by too high temperature. First install a Master Lu to detect the temperature of the CPU and graphics card, and then click on the stress test, test for about 3-5 minutes to see how much the temperature is, the general temperature should be no problem below 70 degrees, if it exceeds this temperature, it should be too high.

    1. Due to temperature problems: When playing games, the temperature of the CPU and graphics card will rise, and when it reaches a certain point, the computer will shut down or restart.

    Solution: Clean up the dust, clean the CPU fan, see if the silicone between the CPU and the fan is dry, if so, add the silicone again.

    2. When playing games, the power requirements of the CPU and graphics card for the power supply suddenly increase, and if the power supply is not enough, it is very likely to be directly powered off. In this case, the power supply needs to be replaced.

    3. It may be that there is a problem with the graphics card, and the game configuration is too high, which causes the graphics card to be unable to bear it. That's just a change of graphics card.

    Try to wipe the dust or something first.

    There are many reasons for the blue screen restart of the computer, and it is recommended that you follow the following methods to troubleshoot them one by one:

    1.Remove newly installed hardware devices, such as external cameras, printers, and memory including upgrades;

    2.Try to click F8 to enter safe mode during the boot process, uninstall the previously installed software, and check and kill viruses in a comprehensive manner;

    3.In order to fully rule out the possibility of software or system problems, you can back up the hard drive data and reinstall the operating system;

    4.If blue screens continue to occur frequently after reinstalling the system, it is recommended that the machine be sent to a local service center for further testing.

    Generally, the automatic shutdown may be caused by the high temperature caused by too much dust in the CPU fan, if so, clean up the dust of the CPU fan and heat sink, and add new heat dissipation silicone grease. If it's not a problem, it may be caused by problems with motherboard parts or power supplies, voltage instability, hard disk failure, etc., and the new hardware is not compatible.

    If it automatically shuts down or standby without operation, it may be a problem with the settings. Right-click on the desktop to select Properties Screen Saver Power Supply Select a scenario that suits you from the drop-down list in Power Usage Scenarios, and set Never in the list of Monitor Off, Hard Disk Off, System Standby, and so on below (or set a suitable time).

    Open the control panel All Control Panel Items Power Options Select Turn off the monitor (select Never or Set Time) Select Change the computer sleep time on the left, and select Never or select the appropriate time (Win7 system) from the drop-down list next to Make the computer sleep.

    1. If the power light is not on, replace the boot power first, if you press the power button, there is also no power light on, the motherboard is a problem.

    2. If the power light is on and it can't be turned on, unplug the memory, clean the gold finger of the memory, and try to plug it in again.

    3. Check whether the graphics card and the motherboard are in good contact, whether the graphics card is working normally, clean the gold finger of the graphics card, and try to plug and unplug it again.

    4. Check that the host is due to the poor contact of other boards on the motherboard, remove the other boards, clean the gold finger, and reinsert it.

    5. Try connecting the host to another monitor, if it also proves to be a host problem, use the replacement method to check the graphics card, memory, and motherboard to find out the damaged hardware.

    6. If the display can be displayed normally when connected to another monitor, it is still the same when you replace it with the original monitor, and the display is damaged and needs to be repaired.
