    I've been having some odd problems with my P150HM. When running on battery, it randomly freezes and makes me do a hard restart. I've tried all three power plans for Windows and all three plans from the Clevo utility to see if there was any difference, and it still freezes up no matter what. Any idea why this would happen?

    What tasks were you doing while on battery? The freezing might be CPU related or RAM related, I think.

    if you was just brousing then you have a problem but if you was gaming or doing cpu/gpu intensive tasks then these need to be done while plugged into mains.

    Its happened when i've just been browsing, to gaming, to even just being on the desktop before running anything. I've previously been able to play Skyrim on battery with no freezes, this is something that started happening a few weeks ago.

    |THe only sure way to figure out if its hardware or software is to get another HDD and do a clean install of Windows and test it again running on the battery. If it doesnt then you need to do some searching in Windows for the answer.. Its nice to have a backup HDD for this purpose.
