Inspiron 1721 Powers off a Few Minutes after Turning it On.
I have an Inspiron 1721 that will power down a few minutes after turning it on. Occasionally it will boot to Windows without problems, but more often it won't make it that far. The fan turns on at slow speed, then after a few moments shifts to medum, then a few moments later it's going full blast. Shortly afterward, it powers down. There are no error messages of any kind and the laptop did not appear to have any overheating issues before. It does not appear to be overheating now, but it won't usually stay on long enough to really tell. I have attempted to run the 32-bit diagnostics, but the system will not complete the pre-assesment before it powers down. Has anyone else experienced an issue like this?
