 FYI. Windows update offer also firmware updates. Dell is very keen to offer firmware updates via Microsoft servers. Same also for Lenovo and other brands. Here's one thread of many "9570 BIOS update appearing via Windows Update" 

thank you.

ok, so far so good.

 

this seems to be driver related, possibly a faulty driver or component hanging up the system. did you recently install any new components or drivers? when did this start happening? ideally we could fix this by returning your system to an earlier state via system restore.

ssd. like less than a month.

but it has happened before this.  i happens but like maybe in 1 week or more. not sure when it started. i just clean installed windows like 3 weeks ago,

thanks ill try this and will repot back if i get a shut off.

when it shuts down, what is the behaviour like? is it an instant shut off? or does windows suddenly decide to initiate the shutdown procedure?

 

have u checked component temperatures (i.e. via HWInfo) when shutdowns happen? when was the last time u serviced your laptop (cleaning out dust, repaste, etc.)? do the shutdowns only happen on battery or on AC power? or both?

all this will help us dial down the range of potential culprits.

instant shut off.  event viewer says 6008

i open minindump says 

DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE (9f)
A driver has failed to complete a power IRP within a specific time.
Arguments:
Arg1: 0000000000000004, The power transition timed out waiting to synchronize with the Pnp

Arg3: ffffe703427a9040, The thread currently holding on to the Pnp lock.
Arg4: ffffbc010e637880, nt!TRIAGE_9F_PNP on Win7 and higher

yes i use realtemp and when it happens they are around 40-50-60c i use log and when it happens temps are fine.

clean service like 4 days ago.

i have no battery.

i can run stress test temps go upto 88c 

i also found this. i dont know how to read minidump

HARDWARE_ID:  {5d624f94-8850-40c3-a3fa-a4fd2080baf3}\vwifimp_wfd

IMAGE_NAME:  vwifibus.sys

MODULE_NAME: vwifibus

FAULTING_MODULE: fffff80546dd0000 vwifibus

am not sure if this is the right place to post this..

is there a place i can get help finding out why my laptop shut down.? or if someone that knows how to read minidump in here.?

it shuts down while am watching you tube. am using edge.

this happens once in a while..

Thanks. I will check it out. Chris Titus is great, but sometimes, probably somewhat out of self-preserving necessity considering his audience, less destructive than I tend to be. For example, not recommending to disable Windows Update. I do that before allowing a system to connect to the internet. I also totally remove/destroy Micro$lop Defender Security. You don't give kids dynamite to play with unless you hate the kids. 

ii like btis of chris and sophia but if i run both some options i cant enable them. hopefully next update of chris allows me to only pick what i want to do.

One of he most valuable tweaks/hacks that often gets overlooked is eradicating Windows "notification" functionality and nuking Action Center. I find notifications to be an extremely annoying part of Windows. It makes it have that crappy smartphone feel to it, and I don't even like notifications on my smartphones... they are generally obnoxious and no real value to them. Windows Push Notification services are also a bloated waste of system resources.  Micro$lop makes disabling this trash very difficult for the average user.

 

I have always hated balloon notifications in Windows 7 and disable them in Group Policy, but they are very mild in comparison to the incessant nagging crap that happens on W10/11.

well  i do like notifications. thats what am saying sophia gives you more control on what you want enabled or disabled.

i hate when they bloat software. i also like to runs a magisk module to disable useless apps that will only make phone slower.

i had to resintall windows again but before i did that i run you defender removal script. windows do run better without it as it removes useless services using less resources..   but  should we run a antivirus or not.? i mean i lknow you left firewall. but am not familiar with any of those things. as on 95,xp and w7 i always turned off windows updates and never used an antivirus. only till i started using w10 when 1909 was released  started using windows update and the stock windows defender.

Yep I do and I only use Chris Titus's script to do so. Heard he is updating it too so can't wait for that to release.

yes it seems that way.. but sophia gives you way more control of what you want to do.

hes sscript its good but didnt give users the ability to choose what they want. like i said essential tweaks some parts i liked but other it disabled i like and i could not turn it back on as it would default back to what he chosed.

i use sophia script

I use the Chris Titus debloater script and he is about to release a new and improved version. Video below. Should be out soon.

In the line with fax. Replace those with any services you want disabled.

got it thank you.

Save the following in a .ps1 file for powershell and run it, replace with the services you wish to disable.

#requires -RunAsAdministrator

# comma seperated list of service names to set to manual
$servicestodisable = "Fax","GamingServicesNet"

# loop through each service and set to manual and stop the service.
Foreach ($service in $servicestodisable) {
    $s = Get-service $service 
    $s | Set-service -StartupType Manual
    $s | stop-service
}

 

thanks so i just add services here..    

"Fax","GamingServicesNet"

or here    

$s = Get-service $service  on this last part $printspooler 

not sure where to start...

i want to have a script that would set useless services to manual.  one script that i used was chris titus essential tweaks. in the debloater. but it also disables some options or features i want..

so am wondering if can be done that i could use that part of the script only. i tried myself ( i have 0 knowledge but tought i could copy only that part and just create a new script) not sure if it needs more code to work. tried lit script but fails error access is denied.

so if it can be done and someone know how if you can please help..

thanks

Right below the post you want to add to the multi quote there is a plus symbol.  Click on that for each post you want to quote and then in the lower of the right hand window you'll see a "Quote # post" that will insert the posts.  Here is a screen shot (just note that the plus symbol has changed to a check mark in my photo because I've quoted your post):

Some use Win 10 LTSC who already have less bloat. Here is two other popular solutions for you. Chris Titus own tools (See also his YouTube channel) Debloat Windows in 2022 - Chris Titus Tech + MSMG ToolKit

thanks. i ended up using sophia script.

i have used msmgtoolkit before.

ive use chris titus before. i think only essentials tweaks and onedrive and cortana disabled... but  there are some stuff he disables that i would like enabled on essential tweaks. 

the only part i would love to use is this part below.

I would not worry about making it perform better, If it is running that should be good enough unless you want to do hardware upgrades. But right now if you can just upgrade the bios to the latest one, your link to the A19 is what I would do, It may let it run Win 10 even though Dell says it is not supported. I don't know how to use the ch34a1 programmer. Clearing the bios you would need to remove the cmos battery but the M4600 may be different from what I know, But unplugging, removing the battery, pressing power button for 10 seconds, open the back panel, unplug the cmos battery and shorting the 2 connectors with a small screwdriver should set bios back to factory defaults. Is your system on legacy or UEFI, you will have to reset it in bios. I dont have a m4600 to know exactly, but if you changed the MOBO you should have the cmos already cleared and ready to upgrade.

it does run win 10 many had win 10 on m4600

ok i tought when you said you had it unlocked that you unlock it.  i have no idea if bios comes unlock for all. 

and no am not talking about that clear of bios.. i mean in bios file the part that has  the intel mangament. when you flash someones elses dump. you need to clear it. ive read that comunication doesnt work well and you face problems..

do you use a debloater.? if so wich one.

This website https://www.dell.com/support/home/en-us/drivers/driversdetails?driverid=5y1dk looks to be the latest from Dell but be careful, it might be for security purposes and might slow your PC. I dont usually update the firmware because of that reason. If it aint broke, dont fix it. I am on A11 unlocked bios in my very old Alienwares and Dell is up to A14 or something like that, They want to improve security, but I dont run a business or a server or any website so I am not afraid of being Hacked by the communists lol

                    Well I just checked my m6700 and it is on A20 which is the last bios update for that laptop, so I cant say yes or no, but if you download it just double click it and let it finish before touching the laptop

no latest is A19.  Dell Precision M4600 System BIOS | Driver Details | Dell US not sure why doesnt show whole link address.

well i do not have knowledge about intel managment engine. and i tought it was to make pc perform better. so there are just security patches. then wich one should i use.? just like you stay on a specific version.

i dont do bussines either and could care less about security. am broke.

so.. seems tha you know about this matter. could you help pick the right version to stay there.. dont worry about bios.. i have ch34a1 programmer. just unbricked this laptop. i have bricked 2 motherboards.. the first motherboard i broke the fan gpu socket when i was installing at night and broke it. so to use laptop wny imte i would use i would use a direct connection of fan. i only had to plug cable to usb port.. then one day when i was reinstalling w10 it got bricked.

downloaded official microsoft iso. and used rufus.  i have installed the same image in usb before several times.

so one time  after the screen you select hard drive to install. then it starts copying files from usb. once it finishes it reboots after 10 countdown.. it rebooted and showed the dell logo then freezed.

pressing any key F12 ect did nothing. i could only see the blue bar fill up then freeze would not go past the dell logo screen.

i did a lot of research and could not find anyting. many said it was the motherboard was dead. so i tought motherboard dead and broken gpu fan socket.. ill get another motherboard. got one with warranty. 

note i live in mexico and bought them on usa. that motherboard was having problems . when i  was watching you tube videos it would shut off randomly. in 20-40 minutes it would shut off. no overheat i could strees cpu and would not overheat or shut off. sent it back. my mom goes to usa every 2-3 months. so sent it with her.. tha was on december 2019 before coronavirus.. she came to mexico on jan 2020 and the pandemic started. borders were close 2 years. so i had someone sent it to repair before warranty expires. it got replaced. but stayed there for like 2 years. thne finally some firned of family went to usa and broght me the motherboard this jan 2022. LOL installed windows 10  and it was breaking some aps when windows did updates. ( thihs is the first time i use windows update ) so i reisntalled windows 10 again... yes it also got bricked exactly like the other old motherboard exactly the same.. after 5 days .. i was ver y sad.

so did some research again and this time i found someone that had the same problem he got it brick differenet but was doing dual install. same dell m4600

so i read he used programmer. so bought one and manage to unbricked it.

do you know how to clear ME.?

Not sure why you think IME needs an update but windows update usually gives "INTEL - System" which they are pretty unclear about exactly what it is AND there is also "Intel® Driver & Support Assistant" that scans your system and gives you the option to download and install or NOT. I have mostly older laptops and this is pretty much uselass but the one newer laptop gets updates from them more often and I have had no problems.

am not sure either. windows update gives you driver not firmware. i think firmware updates are included on bios update. but if theres no more new bios update then you must manually flash the files.
