My computer (Windows 8) Auto Shut Down

Similar Questions

• Windows does not shut down correctly, please choose an option (safe mode, safe mode with network, start windows normally

  Original title: battery

  When the battery dies on Windows 7 Home premium, what makes the look of the laptop screen as to everyone with the same computer? (IE black, dim and then black, dim and white and then black, Sun & blue, etc.)
  And you always get the "Windows did not shut down correctly, please choose an option (safe mode, safe mode with network, start windows normally)" Note?

  It could be a hardware problem, so it is best to contact DELL or a local technician if the problem persists.

  As a work around, I suggest to update the drivers of the computer display and check if it makes a difference.

  Download the drivers from http://www.dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/19/Product/latitude-e6410

• Windows Vista Upgrade shut down my computer at 03:00 and 7 hours disappeared

  After working on an Excel 2003 worksheet for seven hours on my computer (Windows Vista) most recent. A box suddenely appears asking if I wanted to save the spreadsheet I was working on that. Just as I clicked on save the computer automatically stop apparently down to install the updates, it had downloaded earlier (every day at 03:00 I see). My spreadsheet now appears as it did seven hours before. Is there a way to recover my work? Left on file temp perhaps, hidden away somewhere.

  I can't believe this kind of programmed computer crash is the parameter defaoult for Windows Vista upgrades, but it seems that to be this way.

  For future use, in addition to change the settings for upgrade by default to ask before downloading anything, as I do, is it possible (as it was years ago) to set up a recording every few minutes in Office 2003 automatic? If so, how should I do that.

  Hi ttam24,

  Thanks for posting answers.microsoft.com

  If you wish, you can set your updates to install only if you are recommending.

  Here are the steps;

  1. Open Windows Update (click on the Start button, click all programsand then click Windows Update).

  2. Select change settings and choose how you want Windows to install updates.

  For Microsoft Office you can post your question on the forum of Microsoft Office.

• Updates the window appear when shutting down, but do not set up the next time you start

  The display shows 15 updates of Windows are loaded (installed?) when the machine is stopped.  To restart Windows, the screen indicates "wait" while the updates are being configured.  The icon indicates that the configuration is current, but the screen always said that "0% are completed.  Then, after a few minutes, the screen indicates something as "installation failed; Revenant.  After the message 'return', the machine moves to the usual Windows 7 start page and asking to connect you as usual (which allows me to work on the machine).   So, the next time I shut down Windows, the screen indicates that the installation of several updates continues and is completed in series.  Then, the next time I turn on the machine it asks to wait while updates are configured;  and finally, it "fails to complete the configuration" and "resets" as described above.  What happened several times in the last two days.  What should I do to get this resolved failure?

• Has anyone found the solution to the "blue screen" that States windows has been shut down to protect your computer?

  I followed the directions when invited to press F8 but nothing not done, I find myself just to return to the 'blue '.

  I don't have add new hardware before that happened.

  You gave us a general indication of the nature of the problem but the specific error reports are a much easier solution.

  When a BSOD (Blue Screen of Death) the system failure occurs, for most users, there not enough time to fully record what he says. the exact text is important for anyone trying to diagnose what is wrong. You can save time when the error occurs then by following the procedure described below.

  If you already did it disable the auto reboot system error. This should help by allowing the time to write the code to Stop error and related information correctly. Do right click on the icon my computer on the desktop and select Properties, advanced, startup and recovery, system failure and uncheck the box before automatically restarting. Re-do not enable automatic restart in the event of system failure after obtaining this information, this setting is the best left to not allow an automatic restart.

  If the failure occurs during the initialization of the computer, you need to try a different approach. You can access the Advanced Options Menu of Windows on multiple computers by constantly pressing the F8 (key) key when starting and selecting the option - disable automatic restart in case of system error. This method is not always easy to use because it may be difficult to press the F8 key at the right time. Try again if it doesn't work the first time. On some computers, a different key must be used.

• Laptop computer Pavilion: lap top shuts down and re starts randomly after I upgraded windows 10

  It's so boring that I ensured that I learned from reboots after updates are at a standstill but it stops again and re starts random ideas anyone

  Hey @cavvie,

  Unfortunately you can not do this. It will take a clean install of Windows.  Automatic is grayed out and you can not change this, you need to reinstall the operating system. I suggest aclean installof Windows.

  You can use your recovery disks. But you will need to remove all and reinstall Windows.

  Thank you.

  Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

  This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

  This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

  -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
  For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
  Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
  http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

  For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
  Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
  your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
  Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
  Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

  Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
  with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

  Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
  Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
  BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

  Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
  each installation.

  Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
  presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
  in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
  necessary.

  Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
  manually by model.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

  How to install a device driver in Vista Device Manager
  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/193584-Device-Manager-install-driver.html

  If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver under Windows
  Updates, that leaves about Windows updates but it will not install the drivers that will be generally
  older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then HIDE it (right click on it), then
  get new manually if you wish.
