Hello!
My laptop has restarted randomly twice since I got it 6 months ago. I don't feel comfortable using it for tests coming up this semester if it will just restart on me randomly. I wasn't even doing anything intensive when it occurred.
I have Linux and Windows installed (Dual boot). Both have given me this issue before. So I don't think it is a software issue.
Can I send it in to have it looked at/replaced (It's still under warranty).
Thanks!
