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.

Random instant shutdowns - Kernel-Power Event ID: 41, Task: 63

I've been having random unexpected shutdowns recently. My laptop completely shuts off suddenly, with no obvious cause. Sometimes when the laptop's awake, sometimes when it's asleep, sometimes when playing games, opening the internet, or even just logging
in.

I found a load of Critical events in Event Viewer:

Kernel-Power Event ID: 41 Task Category: 63

I had a look around online, and found several 'solutions' most of which were updating drivers.

I have updated:

Bios

Chipset

Audio

Graphics

And I'm still getting shutdowns.

For reference, my system details:

Alienware 17 laptop

Intel i7 processor

Nvidia Geforce 770M

Windows 10 Home

 

Kernel-Power Critical Event

Hi Ryan,

To isolate your concern regarding the random shutdown of your computer, aside from the event viewer, is there any error message that you are getting?

You may refer to his

Looking forward to your reply.
