Laptop Turns Off On Startup

AuthorityAction

I have a laptop that will shut off once windows has booted. The laptop will do a complete start up to the desktop and as soon as it's done it shuts it's self off. The kicker is that the computer will stay on for hours in safe mode. So I'm guessing there is something loading on start up that causes the computer the shutdown, I just can't find it. Thanks for any help!

Looks good. Those files resides in Norton's quarantine. No panic.

I dont see anything suspicious. Is your computer is still acting up?

AuthorityAction

Yes it is, nothing has changed. She'll stay on in safe mode but turn off when Windows loads normally.

Veka

Can it be due to hardware failure? What you think.

AuthorityAction

The reason that I don't think that it's due to hardware is because it will stay on for as long as I need in safe mode. My next plan of action is to disable all of the services one by one to see which one keeps the computer on.

AuthorityAction

I went through and enabled only the windows services and she is running just fine. When I find the one service that is causing it to shutdown I will post back. Thanks for your help!

Veka

You're welcome. I will keep this open. Good luck!
