Windows 10: Event 125, Kernel-Power Right before an Immedient System shut down by Event 41 Kernel-power

Hello,I'm having trouble with my PC randomly shutting down while playing games, doing schoolwork, or looking things up on the Internet. I have not changed anything on my PC for 2 years other than my thermal paste. I recently replaced my thermal paste and tried using compressed air to clean the interior of my computer down to see if that would fix the issue; it didn't. Before I replaced my thermal paste this year, I was having this problem, and even after I replaced it, it continued to happen. The event viewer shows me, right before the shutdown, the following error: Any tips on how to fix? Or

:)

 

Kernel-Power event id 41. BugcheckCode 0

Hello,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

In-order to get more clarity on this issue and to assist you with appropriate troubleshooting steps, reply with answers to the below questions:

1. Are you aware of any changes made on your PC, prior to this issue?
   
2. Is this issue specific while playing a particular game?
   
3. Which edition of Windows are you currently using?
   

A Kernel Power Event 41 can occur in the following scenarios.

Scenario 1: The computer restarts, and there is a Stop error BugcheckCode in the event data.

Scenario 2: The computer is shut down by pressing and holding the power button.

Scenario 3: The system randomly restarts and no Stop error BugcheckCode is listed, or the computer is completely unresponsive (hard hang).

I suggest you refer the article on Kernel
Power Event ID 41 and follow the steps for the scenario that is causing this error on your PC.

Additionally, you can refer the article on Windows
Kernel event ID 41 error "The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first" in Windows
and check if that helps.

restart and kernel-power event

Hi,



The kernel power event ID 41 error occurs when the computer is shut down, or it restarts unexpectedly. When a computer that is running Windows starts, a check is performed to determine whether the computer was shut down cleanly. If the computer was not shut
down cleanly, a Kernel Power Event 41 message is generated.



Try this, see if it works for you:

• Go to "Settings"
• Select "System"
• Select "Power and Sleep"
• Select "Additional Power Settings"
• Select "Choose what the power buttons do"
• Select "Change settings currently available"
• Ensure that "Turn on fast start up" is deselected (unticked)
• Click on "Save Changes"

Restart your computer after performing the steps.



Let us know if the above steps resolved the issue.

 

event 125 kernel power before getting critical error event 41 kernel power

Hello everyone,

While playing NBA 2k24, the game freezes then crashes to desktop. After a few minutes, my laptop shuts down on its own. In event viewer, it shows event 125 kernel power before getting critical error event 41 kernel power. Any thoughts on this? Thank you!
