Thank you for your response. I am using window 8 which came with the laptop , please how can I go about solving this problem?

If I start the laptop after some hours of out of use, it would work for about 30minutes and trip off, but if I try to restart it, it would continue to trip off while trying to boot.

Going by the characteristics of the problem, I seriously suspect the issue of overheating, please what could be the cause of the overheating and what is the way out?

I hope this isn't late.

Overheating can result from the following:

Overuse of laptop
Bad battery
Use of high capacity game, or other program
Blockage of the cooling fan by dirt
Blockage of air vent by surface placed on

Possible solutions:
Reduce the use of your laptop
Check and fix any related issue to battery malfunction
Uninstall any heavy program or game
Free the air vent from dust or/and clean the laptop fan
Don't place laptop on flat surface.

You can as well backup and restore PC as fresh, disable automatic restart (for test purpose), start PC in Safe Mode, Scan PC with updated Antivirus.

You can Uninstall and Reinstall the Bluetooth driver.

OR
Check your Bluetooth settings by right clicking on the Bluetooth icon, then open settings, select option to allow device to be discoverable by others, accept.

What OS are you running?

windows 10
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by Dermie: 8:14pm On Jun 22, 2016

windows 10

This could be caused by a third-party program, a malware infection or faulty drivers.

You should consider reviewing your installed apps, perform a malware scan, update drivers and also disable runtime broker.

To disable runtime broker:
Go to Start menu, select Settings, then open System, select Notifications & Actions. You should turn off the option "Show me tips about Windows". Reboot your PC.

I think you have to use the compatible driver, I mean to re-drive the system.

Do a system restore and do you have a working ANTI VIRUS? "Do a full scan" if all this have been done and no solution.

Tell us your location, let's see if we can come over to help fix

Go to Control Panel, select Bluetooth then Uninstall. In case you couldn't find it, you might have uninstalled it unknowingly after system upgrade or something else.

To install, check online for Bluetooth driver that's compatible with your device. If you still have the installation file in your PC, it should be in your "C" Drive, e.g, "C:\SWTOOLS\DRIVERS\BTOOTH\FOLDER_NAME\Setup.exe".

Alternatively

Go to the Device Manager, Expand Bluetooth, and you will see the model of the bluetooth adapter that is installed, click on Update or Uninstall.

You can also check "Network and Internet" > "Network Connections" > "Bluetooth Network Connection", right click and Enable (if Disabled).


I want to believe the Bluetooth has worked well in the past.
