I woke up 2 days ago and noticed my laptop is showing me this. I haven't used it for a week so I am wondering what could have been wrong here.

Today is even the worst. Once it starts booting and it will shut down. It will keep booting and shutting down by itself.


Bros your hard drive is going going going. Get prepared to replace your hard drive.

well... its your hard disk dying slowly.. the force shutdown is just triggering the symptoms(blue screen of death)

I think we are not both clear on what I'm describing, partly because I'm not a techie. I don't deliberately not shut down properly.....Sometimes, blackout from the electricity board abruptly switch off the system. And when next I power on the system, I get that screen which will require several "on and off" from the button to get out of it.

When I switch on my own, the fan comes on but it doesn't boot. The fan keeps turning and nothing more...
What could be the cause?

this is symtom of a lot of issues.. especially related to your motherboard, caused mostly from bad voltage supply(your charger).. you'll need a technician to be able to pin point the fault..

however you can try a quick fix
1. remove your battery, press and hold the power button for about 10 secs plug in the charger with no battery and power it on..(use a multimeter to read the charger and ensure its supplying around 18v-19v..

2. re-sit your ram.
3. try an external display to make certain its not your screen.

Your hard drive is weak,if your hard drive uses a flex wire,connecting to the motherboard, then u need to change the flex wire. Its on aliexpress at a whooping amount.dont just rush to change your hard drive and waste money,remove the back cover and inspect.

oh! its a desktop computer...
reason your should use a UPS... When a force shutdown happens the filesystem is left in an uncertain state, which can lead to file system damage upon restarting. this causes files curruption and many more ugly stuffs to the hdd.

try make you buy ups.. or just be saving small small on piggyvest for a new hdd(ssd)
Re: Why Is My Laptop Showing Me This And What Is The Solution? (Photo) by Empresa: 7:02pm On Aug 08
It is either any of these. Your Windows is installed on your hard drive.
1. Your hard drive has shifted or not making contact with it's port.
2. Your hard drive is faulty and can't run Windows.

Solution.
1.Replace the hard drive and use it as external 2. Format the drive.

The first option is better if You have vital info in the drive. This is from experience
Re: Why Is My Laptop Showing Me This And What Is The Solution? (Photo) by travelzcruix: 7:05pm On Aug 08
That's the blue screen of death. Get a new hard drive or kpata kpata buy a new system.

Your os or hard disk is damaged.

It's either the hard-disk has issues or the SSD card is not properly positioned sometimes it can reset itself..If none of these work, try reformatting it.

If your system is still starting, you better start backing up your important files on an external drive, your hard disk can crash finally soon.

Window's "blue screen of death."
This is usually caused by a faulty driver. Usually occurs after upgrading the OS, especially upgrading from Windows 7 to Windows 10, and some drivers start to misbehave due to compatibility issues. The major culprits of this type of issue are usually Nvidia drivers.

The issue can be corrected by updating the drivers or by downgrading to the previous OS version from which an upgrade had been performed

Blue screen of death, classic windows problem. Go and buy apple laptop.
Re: Why Is My Laptop Showing Me This And What Is The Solution? (Photo) by maestrovista(m): 7:24pm On Aug 08
This is called the blue screen of death (BSOD). There are many causes, including bad memory module (RAM stick), corrupt drivers and OS files. A recent update could have caused it as well.

Restore the system to a time when it worked. Update drivers.

Bro it happened to me last two months.. the problem can either be your laptop has been infected by a virus or the latest update made your computer crash consistently.

Re: Why Is My Laptop Showing Me This And What Is The Solution? (Photo) by FBIBOT(m): 7:32pm On Aug 08
If u have have software like iobit uninstaller... Ur pc would have a very recent restore point before that error occur.... Just boot into recovery or safe mood and reset to last restore point to minimize your loss of data... If not you will have to format it and lose your Data unless you see someone with a bootable flashdrive or disk

my issue is, why is he just getting crowdstrike issue weeks after??

Not sure how and why. Regardless this blue screen of death was what affected Crowdstrike computers were experiencing. He should research online for the fix. Either Crowdstrike or his hard disk is failing.
