M14x r2 wont shut down

[Blair287]

Hi,

Basically when plugged in my M14x R2 shuts down but when running on battery it shuts down windows but the lights and fans stay on, and i cant turn in back on again unless i hold the power button down.

Please help

Hmmm download HWMonitor and post your temps...

Let's rule out it's an overheating problem first...

Add me to this list, mine also started this over the weekend. Not a heat issue, temps are super low. Will happen on a cold boot or gaming for hours.

My regular laptop does this every once in a while when it's running SUPER hot. But it won't turn off the fans till I open it, log back into windows, and close the lid again.

Fixed this issue by installing Ao2 bios or the new one which ever it is installed that and touch wood its solved the problems

Also on A02 here. Anyone else running an SSD? I was thinking it was my drive till I saw this thread.

Not at all mate... My R2 is performing flawlessly (knocks on wood). Fans aren't nosiy or on all the time. Boot times aren't the greatests but that's b/c I didnt go with the SSD. I really dont mind waiting 10 more secs for windows to load.
