    I'm not going to preach proper english or anything, but that's one hell of a run-on sentence and I'm not quite sure I can understand it.

    Try reseating the battery to see if it's still happening.

    Justin LOL. I was in a hurry sorry. Three times in one day my W2V just shut off instantly while using it, as if i just took the battery out not like a windows shut down. Twice it was on AC power once on battery power. Just shut off and rebooted itself and i have no idea why?

    Are you running NHC? I was having the ame problem using the smart fan setting I think it was. I may have been something about how NHC thought my laptop was getting too hot so it turned it off. If you are running NHC then I would check the settings on it.

    I dont have smart fan control enabled but i will try unloading NHC just to see. The prob is its so random doesnt happen every day. so even its hardware wise and i send to asus they might not be able to duplicate the issue.
