Hello,
My Dell Studio laptop turns off at randon time and then I have it off for approx 30 minutes and then it reopens. What is causing this to happen?

Hi there,

Right click on my computer> properties >advanced system settings>advanced tab >settings and disable automatic restart,does the temperature of laptop seem to be normal or hotter than usual?

Thanks

This could be either hardware or software errors. We will need more information to diagnose your problem. Does it relate to heat build-up in the laptop? Do you get BSOD (blue screen of death) with a Windows error?

Dell has built-in diagnostic tools in the BIOS on most newer laptops. Fit F10 right after you see the Dell logo and select the diagnostic screen options.

Good Luck
