Laptop is Running at Very High Temperatures:
While running your laptop, your device shuts off due to it being overheated.
Dirty Fan
A very common reason for your laptop’s black screen is your device getting overheated. This may occur because of dust, dirt, hair, or grime stuck across your laptop’s fan, which makes it difficult for it to cool down the laptop properly.
Battery Won’t Charge:
Your laptop won't be charged despite receiving the message,”“plugged in, but not charging”.
Faulty Battery
The faulty battery could be a possible reason. Unplug the charger from the battery source, and if your laptop suddenly goes blank, then it's a battery issue. Try to replace your battery with a working one for confirmation
Short Battery Life:
Your laptop is supposed to have about 6 hours of battery capacity, but it seems your battery depletes even quicker.
Aged Battery
All batteries will lose some capacity over time. Each time you discharge and recharge your battery, you will lose a very small amount of this capacity. Update your drivers, operating system, and applications to get the most life out of your battery.
Applications Draining Battery
The battery will lose capacity when left in a system without the AC power attached because the system will draw a small amount of current that will deplete the capacity over time. This is normal for the laptop. To save battery, search for “See which apps are affecting your battery life”, and view the list of applications to manage your capacity.
