Unexpected Shutdown After Period Of Inactivity
Aug 22, 2011
I'm hoping someone could give me some pointers on how to go about investigating my PC switching itself off after approximately 10 minutes of inactivity (not sleeping, as Windows is configured to do after 30 mins). The PC is used as a media centre with xbmc running as the frontend.If I leave the computer unattended whilst in XBMC. the computer will switch off after approximately 10 mins. I haven't (yet) checked if it happens outside of XBMC, though I suspect it will.The eventviewer shows: The previous system shutdown at <time> on <date> was unexpected.But nothing else of significance.The reason I'm convinced this is software related is because the shutdown always occurs around about 10 mins after leaving the PC alone, with no input. I havent timed it precisely, but will do so when I next get a chance.If I am using the PC in any way, or watching a film, it does *not* shutdown. There are no errors apart from that in the eventviewer log - i.e. no boot menu when you power back on to recommend safe mode, no message on starting windows to say it shutdown unexpectedly. I havent actually observed the shutdown myself yet, so Im not sure if there is a bluescreen or not.

I have this problem with Windows and it's getting really annoying. At first I thought it only happened when recovering from sleep mode but I have since been proved wrong. I have gone into Power Options and set my laptop to never go into sleep, never dim the screen and never turn off the display. I then went into advanced power settings and set the hard drive to never turn off. I have since realised that Windows 7 will only freeze after a period of inactivity whether there is an open program or not.

I have a rig I use occasionally, as HTPC and occasional mule work, file service, etc.I would like to not have it simply sleep when I have left it running and not returned, but rather have it shutdown properly.Is there a way to do this within Windows 7 controls, or is there an aftermarket, shareware, or scripting way to do so?

My computer gets at least ONCE BSOD every time I turn it on after a long period of shutdown. It also sometimes randomly just shuts off or give me additional BSODs. It has got to the point that I can't even load to windows recently, which lead me to reformat my computer. I know the drivers here are not the latest ones, I am trying to use only the drivers from the CDs that came with the hardwares because the last time I used all the latest ones it still caused BSODs. I am not sure what other information I need to post up.

I have a laptop, running Win 7, that has worked fine for well over a year. All of a sudden, it won't run for more than about 10 minutes before it randomly shuts down and restarts. Here's the error log that popped up last time it did this:

I'm using Windows 7 Home Premium with Service Pack 1 with 4 gig RAM and 64 bit system. When I restart my computer, it tends to take it around 5 to 10 minutes to actually shut down. It sits at the screen saying shutting down, and eventually does but when it starts up, it also tends to take a bit longer than normal and then windows browser gives me an error and restarts itself and then tells me that there was an unexpected shutdown. I've tried glancing for issues to no avail. I've also noticed that sometimes my USB ports stop recognizing devices but usually comes back upon restart. I've tried updating drivers but everything seems to be up to date from what I've seen. I use McAfee antivirus software which hasn't picked up any viruses as well.

I am not sure if this is linked to my attempt to restrict my computers ability to sleep and/or hibernate while I am backing up my ipod to a network drive. (When it sleeps it stops the process).

I have a pc with following spec:
Windows Home 7 64 bit
Packard Bell ixtreme M5722
Intel(R)Core(TM)2 Quad CPU
RAM 6GB
160GB HD
It is a factory refurb ex-demo which came with windows 7 installed.I originally got the machine in January with a 1TB HD plus NVidia GeForce graphics card.Using with USB wired mouse, wireless keyboard.All was well for 10 days or so until it started having unexpected shutdowns.These increased to become full BSOD, occurring once or 2x daily.These events sometimes occur without warning although sometimes the mouse/keyboard goes sticky for up to an hour before problems occur.The machine has been back to supplier where it failed to display any problems.I have tried it without graphics card, tried disconnecting speakers, using with/without surge protected adaptors, tried different mouse/keyboard (wired and wireless).
Finally I tried my 1TB HD in another PC (same model as mine).Complete lockup of keyboard/ mouse.Reinstalled on 160GB HD (all that was available to test) in the alternative PC, refused to work with wireless keyboard and mouse, ran fine for a week with USB wired devices. Swapped back to my original PC keeping 160GB HD, ran 2 days ok, now back to same BSOD message.

I have just built a PC in the aim of using it as a Home Theather. I have a Media Center remote control and TV card, when I use the remote to put the computer to sleep it seems to work fine However when I use the remote to wake the PC, I get a reboot and unexpected shutdown message. This is also the case when I use the Start -> Shut down options -> sleep or hibernate. I have tried using microsoft debugger and the message I have been seeing is that, AverBas.sys does not have a timestamp and that its symbols can not be loaded. I got this far on my own but I have no idea what to do from here! I have attached the required zip file.

Three days ago I found the computer safe mode with the message: Windows has recovered from an unexpected shutdown...and so on...Computer then would boot normally, but after a few minutes the monitor would go black. After shutting down with the button, the boot sequence would read Windows did not shut down normally...From there I got it to boot normally a couple of times, but after a few minutes a single mouse-click on something would kill the monitor again...eventually it would only boot into safe mode -- by itself. The graphics deteriorated to a more pixelated fuzzy mess, and suddenly even before the OS started it was low resolution I upgraded the driver to the latest (clean install) and last night things seemed fine. I left it on all night and this morning everything was fine and it worked great...for a few minutes. System Restore didn't help (grasping at straws here) but in Safe Mode With Networking everything seems just as it should (for safe mode, that is...). I am going to try to reset the card but I'm wondering if I'm correct in thinking it's probably the graphics card?

My Lenovo Thinkpad T400s running 64bit win7 has been freezing recently pretty often and so I have been shutting it down by pressing shut down button. It has recovered from it before, but at some point it would get stuck at 30% recovering and then start up after a long time. Now it is stuck at 6%. Before this it got up to 14% after keeping it on for 24hours. What can I do? It won't boot up from the recovery boot media either.
