Something weird just happened

[VickiFL]

I have been on my SP3 i5 all morning doing work and paying bills. I turn around to take a call, and when I turn back around a minute later, my SP3 screen is black. It was shut off. I was not doing anything that would put stress on it, and it wasn't hot when I felt the back. I was just using Google Chrome, that's it. It was plugged in.

I tried everything to get it to turn back on, even using the volume button with the power button. I few minutes later, it finally powered back on, and I'm using it right now. I just got a big update, and this happened right after that. I'm not saying the update caused this, but it is weird. I can't explain this as it has never happened before.

Any suggestions?

Check the System Event Log to see if it logged an unusual shutdown.

 

[VickiFL]

I did, and didn't see anything unusual.

My instinct is to blame Chrome.

Maybe your update did a restart, and you missed a warning notice during that call.

... Or it is Chrome.

I've been using Chrome since the day I bought my SP3, though, and this never happened before.

I got into a car accident today, was rear ended while stopped at a red light. I'm not feeling well, and can't think of any reason this would happen. I'm sore, and drugged up, so that could be impairing my cognitive functions, lol I just hope this issue doesn't happen again.

 

[sharpuser]

So sorry about that car accident. Get well. You still have many more lives.

 

[GreyFox7]

Hmm, just remember correlation does not imply causation although you might want to be extra careful driving or stay home if something weird happens again.

Thank you. I am really sore today, but have meds to help.

Damn Friday the 13th.

I went to the Microsoft Store today with hubby and they verified that the last update caused a critical crash, but couldn't explain why. That really bothers me, but nothing I can really do, and I don't feel well enough right now to pursue it any further. Just hoping it doesn't happen again.

He was kinda snotty with me because I have "God Mode" on my desktop.

@VickiFL Hope your doing well and you'll feel better soon.

That's rich.

I'm surprised the Microsoft droid even knew what God mode is.
