Goodmorning everyone. Need some help here. With system issues. My system no longer boots . if I turn it on , it will just go off by itself within two minutes. Even without me shutting it down. Any solution pls?

You mean it will shut in its normal process of shutting down or it will just go blank (off) at once?

Go to a software shop and get a driver pack solution 15.7v that should solve the problem.

Please house, just yesterday i tried installing windows 10 and it requested for product key reason being that the windows version 8.1 i am on is not activated. To beat that, i booted my pc from an external hard drive with win 10 loaded on it, which gave me the opportunity to format my pc's hard drive. I do not have a flash drive so i made my 8gb memory card a bootable disk, then i tried installing the win 10 again by booting from the memory disk. The 1st attempt did not go far, at the 2nd attempt, after about 3hrs of GETTING DEVICES READY and restarting like twice, it prompted windows cant complete the installation, try reinstalling. "What could be the cause"?. Could it be because i'm using a memory card as a bootable disk or because my hard drive is partitioned?, though the larger chunk is where i'm trying to install the 10 on, like 301gb. Awaiting your timely response. Thanks

well,you misplaced all the methods then you couldnt retrace your steps
but i wld like to commend your attempt esp trying to boot from a memory card (its very thotful)i use that when im somewhere i have limited resources...
here are possible problems with that method:
1-the memory card has to be an original one else you wld get those errors
2..the card reader forms a bridge between the system and the memory card so that too has to be an original else the system wont be able to get pass the reader on startup
trying to bypass an installation just cause of a product key request was quite dumb.....u cld ask or just check google..the main problem with license verification actually occurs after installation esp where your system is connected to the internet via updates so no need worrying at that stage.
another possible cause is uefi....modern systems dont use bios..so u have to know your system settings before you can prepare a bootable device with or uefi else you would enter the system config to manually enable or disable some settings..
the iso or installation files may also not be copied properly onto the memory card
last possible problem as it relates to partition,ur system may actually contain hidden partition

Great morning house,
Pls I need your urgent assistance on what to be done, i just got the laptop and below is the start up message I got....


Windows could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt
WINDOWS\inf\biosinfo.inf
You can attempt to repair this file by starting windows set up using the original setup CD-ROM.
Select 'r' at the first screen to start repair

Thanks in advance
