Laptop keeps turning itself off

[THE FLASH]

My boss installed one of those ecleaner things.......made my laptop turn off all the time.

Deinstalled..........no drama....

How good is the battery? Does it hold a charge?

If the battery is bollocksed, take it out. My old laptop turned off all the time because the battery was old and fucked. Once it was removed, i had no problems.

Take the battery out and stick it in the freezer for 24 hours... this has three benefits...

1)It confuses the hell out of the missus the next time she look in the freezer

2)It will make your laptop feel 'cool' even when it actually looks shit

3)It will temporarily fix any over heating problems that may have been described above (due to it's coolness)

What it doesn't do is stop your laptop from turning itself off.  To fix this problem you have to drop it from a height of 6 feet onto a concrete floor.  This way it will never turn back on and so you will no longer have the problem of it turning itself off again

I would suggest not as the overheating will be caused by the processor/cooler and not the battery.
