My laptop randomly and repeatedly shuts off without a power off sequence. One sec I’m there another it’s completely off. I have done every driver test for my laptop and ran every hardware test. The only test that I cannot run is my cpu check because my computer turns it’self off. My cpu however has no issues according to hp. I really need this fixed help

I do see a light next to the ac port. The screen doesn’t have time to even turn on before the system powers down. I followed your steps and nothing changed. I have tried only running the power on the cord by removing the battery and the issue persisted. One thing to note is that I can hear the hard drive power on before it shuts off but besides that nothing else happens.
