So I'm having this issue the past few days and it is driving me insane. Coul you guys give me any help?

 

My HP Probook 4530s which is 2 years and a half old shuts down and/or sometimes hibernates out of nowhere. Sometimes it takes some time so I can turn it on again and sometimes it shuts down again 2~3 seconds after boot. The shutdown so far did't have a pattern, so I'm a bit lost. I've searched throughout the internet and couldn't find any issue that was exactly like mine.

 

 

The thing is, it s not overheat, I cleaned my entire notebook last month and it's not even a bit hot. It's not the OS nor a virus, cause I thought it could be that and formated the whole thing twice now. I don't think it's the bios either, but I'm not sure of that, but I updated it to the last version like 10 times already.

 

What I would like to mention is:

Last year my battery died forever, I took a long time and bought a new one last week, and it works perfectly, had no issues till 2 days ago. Because of that when I had to move the notebook it ended up with no battery and had to update the clock everytime I powered on again the notebook, cause it got back to the 1980's for some reason. 

Could this be in any way a red flag?

 

I can't buy a new notebook as of right now and would really appreciate if anyone gives me any help on that.

 

Thanks in advance!

Hello @Deeekiii ,

To get your issue more exposure I would suggest posting it in the commercial forums since this is a commercial product. You can do this at Commercial Forums.

Even though this is a Commercial product, try checking the RTC battery. It could be low and causing the Real Time Clock (RTC)to be incorrect which would cause the shutting down. Here is a document to show you how to replace this.

 

Hope this helps.

 

Thanks.
