@PanchoVilla52, Welcome to HP Support Community. 

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you. 
Sudden resets on your HP laptop can be caused by a variety of issues ranging from overheating, driver conflicts, or system settings. Let’s walk through some steps to help resolve this:

Disable Automatic Restart to View Error Messages

This will help identify if a Blue Screen (BSOD) is causing the resets.

• Press Windows + S, type View advanced system settings, and open it.
• Under Startup and Recovery, click Settings.
• Uncheck Automatically restart, then click OK.
• Restart your laptop.

Now, if an error occurs, Windows will show a blue screen with a message instead of restarting. You can use that info to diagnose further.

Check for Overheating

Overheating can cause sudden shutdowns or restarts.

• Ensure vents are not blocked.
• Use the laptop on a hard, flat surface.
• Clean dust from vents using compressed air.

Update BIOS and Drivers

Outdated BIOS or drivers can cause instability.

• Open HP Support Assistant (pre-installed on most HP laptops). HP Support Assistant | HP® Support
• Check for BIOS and driver updates.
• Install all recommended updates.

Run HP Hardware Diagnostics

To rule out hardware issues:

• Restart your laptop and press F2 repeatedly to enter HP PC Hardware Diagnostics.
• Run System Tests > Extensive Test. 

I hope this helps. 

Take care and have a good day.
