Hi @pooj23,

Welcome to the HP Support Community.
 

Thank you for posting your query. I will be glad to help you.

I understand your Victus by HP 15.6-inch Gaming Laptop 15-fa1000 is experiencing sudden shutdowns and rapid battery drain, even when plugged in. It could be due to a battery health issue, a firmware problem, or power management settings. Let’s try troubleshooting the issue and fixing it:

1. Run HP Battery Check

Use HP’s built-in diagnostic tool:

  • Download and install HP PC Hardware Diagnostics for Windows.
  • Open the app → Select Component Tests > Power > Battery.
  • Run the test and note the battery status (e.g., “Replace”, “Calibrate”, or “OK”).


2. Update BIOS and Drivers

Outdated firmware can cause power issues:


3. Check Windows Power Settings

  • Go to Settings > System > Power & Battery > Battery Usage.
  • Look for any app draining power abnormally.
  • Under Additional Power Settings, choose Balanced or HP Recommended.


4. Battery Calibration (if test suggests it)

  • Charge the battery to 100%.
  • Let it discharge completely until the laptop shuts down.
  • Recharge to 100% without interruption.

 

I hope this helps.

 

Take care, and have an amazing day!
