Nowt there to do it Kymmy. Only power option is long life battery and LCD saving, both already disabled, but tried enabling too - still shuts down.
Battery indicator still says charging but it's clearly not.

It didn't the last time I tried, but I think it has done at least once? I'll need to test it again. Could that be it? I did (eventually, after 3 shutdowns during..) get Windows to run through a chkdsk at startup and reported no bad clusters or sectors. I'll look for a proprietary app to check it, if I can get the damn thing to stay on long enough. It's not making it to the desktop 9 times out of 10 right now. Sometimes it shuts down during boot.
