Hello,
I bought an Aspire E5-575G about 11 months ago. Since about a week ago, the laptop has been randomly shutting down when left unplugged (not rebooting, simply turns black). The problem is not consistent - it sometimes occurs after 30 minutes, sometimes it does not for hours. Overheating is not a problem (HWMonitor running). Seems to occur more frequently when streaming content online. The event log does not provide much insight to me. I imagine it would be an issue with the power supply, and am considering replacing the battery.
Anyone have any insight as to how to identify the problem, if not hardware related or if not necessary to replace the battery?
Purchased laptop in the US, but currently living in Belgium meaning the warranty does not apply. I move back to the US three days before the warranty expires.
Event Log pasted below.
Thank you in advance for any troubleshooting assistance.
