Windows Shutting Down When No User Input For An Hour

Apr 6, 2013

Windows seems to keep shutting itself down after about 1-2 hours of no user input. By this I mean, regardless of what programs are left running, if I do not move the mouse of press a button on the keyboard once an hour, the system will shut itself down.

This is not a crash, there are no errors, the event log shows nothing unusual, Windows runs through the full and proper shut down procedure as if I had clicked the shut down button myself.

I have checked through every option I can think of, I have looked at every option I can think of in the Power Options menu, including the advanced options, I have searched on Google and on here, and I can come up with nothing.

Windows 8.1 Losing Internet Connection Every Hour

Aug 6, 2014

Every hour on the hour, I lose the Internet connection with the follow error sequence:

The Base Filtering Engine service terminated unexpectedly. It has done this 2 time(s). The following corrective action will be taken in 300000 milliseconds: Restart the service. The Diagnostic Policy Service service terminated unexpectedly. It has done this 2 time(s). The following corrective action will be taken in 300000 milliseconds: Restart the service. The Windows Firewall service terminated unexpectedly. It has done this 2 time(s). The following corrective action will be taken in 300000 milliseconds: Restart the service. The Network Connected Devices Auto-Setup service terminated unexpectedly. It has done this 2 time(s). The following corrective action will be taken in 300000 milliseconds: Restart the service. Eventually (300000 msecs later), it usually restarts (but not always - I need to do a reboot).

Debugging :: Windows Computer Crashing And Reboot Each Hour

Aug 15, 2014

About 6 days ago my computer started to crash (as in no shutdown sequence, just straight off) and reboot on the hour, every hour. So 11am, 12pm, 1pm on the dot.

I tried memtest to see if it was a memory issue and it ran for 3 hours with no errors. Safe mode is not effected so it seems to be specific to windows proper.

Here are the main details about the error:
SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION 0x0000003b Caused by driver ntoskrnl.exe

There was a weird error message in task scheduler as well, which I have posted in the screenshots below.

I have also attached the logs and a dump from blue screen view.

Dell 5720 Laptop - Windows 8.1 Upgrade Hang Up At 28 Percent For Over An Hour

May 23, 2014

Been running the upgrade to 8.1 from a factory installed Win 8 system on my Dell 5720 laptop. Download took quite long and now installation is taking even longer. It went through multiple steps on the Dell logo splash screen starting with "Getting Ready". Then it went to "Setting Up". Another lengthy time period. Now its doing "Setting up a few more things" and has been hung at 28% for over an hour. Hard drive activity very low and sporadic.

Browsers/Mail :: IE11 Always Hangs After About 1 Hour

Jan 20, 2014

I have Windows 8.1 and IE11 always hangs after about 1 hour, all tabs do not respond and the top of the page says Internet Explorer (not Responding).

I can leave it for a couple of hours and nothing happens, when I right click on the IE on the taskbar and select close window an error message comes up that IE is not responding and if I click "close" nothing happens, if I click search for solution and restart, a new IE restarts but the original stays and remains "not responding".

Even Task Manager cannot close it down I have to reboot to get rid of it.

I believe I have the attest version of IE11 (11.01)

Debugging :: Multiple BSOD Crashes Every Hour

Mar 19, 2014

While doing seemingly resource light tasks such as watching a youtube video or listening to soundcloud, I would get BSOD. There are several different ones like the Watch dog one, pfn list corrupt, IRLQ not less or equal, system service exception and a memory dump.

I just did a fresh install of Windows 8 since I thought 8.1 was causing the issue. It started up around the time I upgraded to it and has gotten progressively worse.

Using an AMD HD7870 with the current non beta drivers. It caused it with the beta driver as well.

I checked all the RAM (4 sticks of 4) and they all worked individually.

Debugging :: BSOD After About Half An Hour Of Playing Games

Jun 18, 2014

I'm having major issues with my GPU while playing games on my MSI GT60 0ND. I've tried several different drivers, from the one that came with the computer when I bought it, the one I could download from MSI's own webpage, to the newest from Nvidia. I was wondering whether you could see something in the dump files that could indicate the source of the problem.

The problem started about a year after the buy (which coincidentally was when the warranty ran out). It started out with a few BSOD's from time to time (video_tdr_failure - nvlddmkm.sys), and has now progressed to the point where the computer will BSOD shortly after playing. The problem started after I upgraded to Windows 8.1, but still persists now that I've downgraded back to 8, although it seemed like the problem was gone for a few days. The last BSOD happened while playing Hearthstone, after about half an hour of playing (which is longer than it usually takes).

Is this a software-related problem, or is the GPU simply shot?

Computer specs :
Computer: MSI GT60
CPU: Intel Core i7-3630QM
Graphics Card: Nvidia GeForce GTX 675M / 2GB GDDR5
Ram: DDRIII 12GB (4GB * 3)
HDD: 750GB 7200RPM

Does Windows 8 Really Shut Down?

Oct 5, 2012

I'm using Windows 8 Professional (got it from MSDNAA as soon as it appeared there ) and it seems to me that Windows 8 doesn't really shut down properly. I attached an image taken with Snipping Tool and it showed that the CPU up-time is 4 days etc etc..

The inconsistency here is, I just booted up my laptop few minutes ago. I did shut down my laptop properly every time. The only explanation here is that this 4 days ago was the day when I placed my battery back into the laptop.

But the laptop supposed to shut down PROPERLY right?

Windows 8.1 Won't Shut Down

Aug 5, 2014

For the past 2 weeks (approximately), when I click "Shut Down" on my Win 8 laptop, nothing happens. If I click "Sleep," it goes to sleep right away, but it will not shut down. I see by the forum posts that my problem isn't unique. I have tried all three methods described in the post: [URL] .... - all to no avail. I have also tried Power Options > Choose what the power buttons do and unchecked Turn on fast start up as other posts have suggested.

In Method 2 described in the post above, I ran sfc /scannow and ended up with the following result:

Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files but was unable to fix some of them. Details are included in C:/Windows/Logs/CBS/cbs.log. (I tried to attach the file but it's 15MB, too large).

My Win 8 machine is new (only a few months old) and my system specs are attached also. It was shutting down fine, I have a feeling this happened during a Windows Update.

Windows 8 Won't Sleep Or Shut Down Properly

Jan 1, 2014

I recently bought a new laptop which has windows 8 installed on it and at times when I put it into sleep mode the screen goes off but the computer is still running and I have to use the power button to turn it off(Which I don't really like to do). When I turn it off the same thing happens and sometimes when I'm lucky it will give me an error message .I have download all of the updates for windows 8 which did not solve it and I disabled fast bootup which didn't either I am just wondering if I download 8.1 will it fix it although I installed 8.1 on another laptop and the same thing happened and then I installed just 8 which gave me the same result.

Changing Shut Down Windows Screen?

Feb 12, 2013

Is it possible to change the "Shut Down Windows" screen (which appears if I press Alt+F4 on my Desktop)? Currently the following options are available to me in the drop-down box:

*Change User

*Logout

*Energy Saving Mode

*Shut Down

*Restart

And it is defaulted to *Shut Down.I want to get rid of all the options except: *Shut Down and *Restart. And I want to keep *Shut Down as the default option to show up. -Is this possible?

I would also like to move the *Restart option so that it appears above the *Shut Down option (it is currently below.)

Can Windows 8.1 / 7 Be Shut Down Without Installing Updates

Sep 15, 2014

I set up windows to automatically install updates, and I don't want to change that.

When I'm in a hurry to restart or shutdown my PC and I only see "Shut down installing updates" and "Restart installing updates", is there some way to do it bypassing the update?

I've tried command line: shutdown /s but it doesn't work (it updates before shutting down).

Likewise, Alt+F4 (from the desktop) only offers shutting down or restarting and updating.

Neiter logging out and then choosing to shut down (your only choice is also to update and shutdown/restart).

Windows 8.1 Upgrade - Causes PSU To Shut Down During Start

Nov 6, 2013

After upgrading from Win 8 to 8.1 my computer has become almost unusable. It freezes, can't maintain connections in Internet Explorer, has thousands of event errors, takes several MINUTES to start, and now causes the PSU to shut down during start. I does this with 3 different PSU's. I also can't use secure boot anymore. When I look up event error fixes, microsoft wants me to make registry changes, uninstall and re-install programs, and do other risky things that I'm just not qualified to do. I'm just afraid of really screwing things up beyond repair. It took me forever to get windows 8 installed, and I thought 8.1 would be better.

Network / Sharing :: Shut Off Bluetooth In Windows 8?

Feb 4, 2013

I read somewhere that the Bluetooth physical transmitter sends out some type of signal into the environment. I also read that it's probably not harmful... but since I probably will not be using Bluetooth in the immediate future, it's probably better off.

Is there an easy way in Windows 8 to shut off Bluetooth for now?

Maintenance :: Windows 8 Takes Too Long To Shut Down?

Aug 21, 2013

Windows 8 which I installed recently (from factory recovery image) suddenly now takes too long to shutdown.

Around 2 minutes and 20 seconds. I tried disabling and enabling "Fast Startup" but that didn't affect the shutdown time.

Also reduced the "WaitToKillServiceTimeout" from 5000ms to 3000ms but also there is no effect.

Also the "ClearPageFileAtShutdown" is set to 0.

I even tried hibernating instead of shutdown and it took 2:20 minutes too !Also disabled hibernate with "powercfg -h off" and tried to shutdown , and took 2:20 minutes too.

Shut Down During Windows Update Now Computer Won't Start

Dec 31, 2013

I have a laptop that's only about 5 months old and runs Windows 8. When I had to pack it up to go, I went to shut it down, and it started doing the windows update. I closed the laptop, packed it up, and left. When I start it back up, I see a screen with two options: Troubleshoot and Power off your PC. When I click trouble shoot, this is what I see:

Refresh your PC, and Reset your PC, Advanced options.

When I click refresh my PC, it says "The drive where Windows is installed is locked. Unlock the drive and try again.

When I click reset, it says, "Unable to reset PC. A required drive partition is missing."

When I click advanced options, this is the screen : [URL] ......

The four options are: System Restore System Image Recovery Automatic Repair Command Prompt

When I click System restore, it says I need to restart the PC, and select an OS and then select system restore, but I have no clue how to do that.

SIR says "The system cannot find the file specified (0x80070002)

Auto Repair says that it cannot fix my PC. No reason why.

Windows 8 Sometimes Won't Shut Down / Sleep / Restart Properly?

Oct 1, 2014

When I choose to either shut down, restart or put my laptop to sleep through the Windows 8.1 start menu, usually everything is okay and the process works, however sometimes (I'd say one attempt on four), the computer is stuck with the screen turned off but the fan still turned on! In this case all I can do is to force the laptop to shut down by pressing the power button 5 seconds, but I was always told it was somehow bad for the computer and would eventually damage it

Maintenance :: Windows 8 Computer Won't Restart Or Shut Down

Feb 2, 2013

I've had my windows 8 computer since December and for the past month or so it will not restart or shut down unless I do a hard shut down with the power button. When hitting restart it starts to shut down, then comes up with "restarting" screen and just stays there, never moves from there. On shut down it just freezes after closing down windows. It can't be good always shutting down via the power button. I haven't added any new programs at all so not sure why this started happening.

Debugging :: Windows 8 Doesn't Shut Down Instead It Restarts

Oct 29, 2013

Whenever I click the "shut down" button, the PC powers off for a moment and then just starts up again... I've tried disabling fast boot option in the power settings but that does nothing. Also every time my PC starts it says "Your PC ran into a problem" and some other info about on how it is a "system failure" and how I can send it to Microsoft. It also creates a MEMORY.DMP file in my System32 folder. This is really bugging me and it's happening since I reinstalled my Windows after getting a new motherboard, cpu and ram. Should I try reinstalling my Windows 8 again or is there a simpler solution to this? Also I have the latest version of BIOS and my system specs are:

Gigabyte GA-970A-D3 rev 3.0
AMD FX-8320 Black Edition Turbo mode @ 3.7ghz
2x4GB Kingston HyperX DDR3 @ 1600mhz (it goes a little bit over that since of the turbo mode of my cpu)
VIA Audio integrated on the mobo
LC Power LC600H-12 @ 600W

Maintenance :: Windows 8.1 Computer Takes 4 Minutes To Shut Down

Jan 3, 2014

I have a Dell XPS 8700 Desktop, has 8GB of RAM and a 1TB hard drive, running Windows 8.1 which I had installed the day it came out..the PC I purchased in September 2013..for the past few weeks I have noticed how when I shut down the pc that it can take up to 4 minutes to shut down, the monitor will go black but the power button the tower will remain white til it turns off, it used to turn off in a matter of seconds, now its minutes..same issue for restart, takes about 3 minutes to restart and no one from Dell can figure out what the problem is..all I had installed in December were updates from microsoft thats it, other than that nothing new has been installed. Yesterday I got a notification from Dell on my PC notifying me that I should update my BIOS which was A4 to A6 which I did and still the same issue..talked to five technicians and no one can figure it out, been told maybe its software related and I need to reformat the hard drive, I feel that would be a waste of time, if there was an actual cause I would do it, but to format my hard drive with no known cause of this problem would be stupid, it would just happen again.

Network / Sharing :: Unable To Shut Down - Windows Refuse To Detect LAN Driver?

Feb 13, 2013

At random, Windows would refuse to shut down, although it would cancel out the display. Hitting the power button it would bring the PC back to life in a state half in shutdown and half alive. Upon restart, Windows will refuse to detect my LAN driver. It wouldn't even show up on the device manager (not even as an unknown device).

I have Gigabyte G1 Assassin motherboard with BigFoot Network LAN card. To make the LAN work again, I have to delete the Big Killer Network software from my PC and re-install it again. But after two days, Windows will do the same thing all over again.

System Rig:
Intel Core i7 processor
4GB of RAM
