Solve : Laptop Suddenly Powers OFF?

Answer»

My Dell Inspiron 1501 will suddenly TURN OFF for no reason....it will be plugged in
to a power outlet and then just TURN OFF.........any thoughts as to why this is
going on?Could be a heat problem, clean vents[blowout]. Do you hear the fan?Hey,

so sorry I did not get your email sooner, you must have been waiting and ANNOYED

Regarding the SMART errors of the previous thread, the hard drive needs replacing, fast.

I also agree with xavier, the laptop could be OVERHEATING and just shutting down before it DIES. Does it feel REALLY hot during use? Does the fan get louder after a few minutes?

It could also be the hard drive...if it gets warm and then stops RESPONDING or just locks up randomly. I have seen desktops BSOD/reset just from a bad drive; especially if the drive in question is the drive windows is installed on.
