HP Pavilion Gaming-15 stopped working while connected and playing due to gaming.
The laptop shut down unexpectedly during gaming. I attempted to restart it but it didn’t respond, tried disconnecting and reconnecting without charging, and eventually it worked again after some time. I also noticed it stopped warning about low battery before shutting down, which seems to be changing now. Could this be related to the battery?
I also have additional cooling solutions such as a laptop cooler stand with fans. Yet the previous day I adjusted my under volt settings so that components operate normally by default. This might be the cause, but it's been several hours since then and the machine won't start or display charging signals. When I manage to boot it up, I'll revert to the under volt settings as before the issue started.
I think I found the fix. I took out the cable connecting the battery to the board to restart it. Then I re-applied the undervolt and throttle settings. The laptop still runs after an hour of use—no more shutdowns. It seems the overheating issue is the main problem! Changing the battery connection and plugging it in again also helps it start up.
