So it happened around today, i was doing some stuff and my screen completely went black...
My laptop was still on but the screen was completly off.. Never i've seen that happen before. I pressed the power button to shut it off, turned it back on and it had to do an update, i let it update, When it was half way done it was Shutting down, but for quite a bit until i got a BSOD which i think was DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE... My computer booted up correctly later. Fast forward until now i was using discord and such and my computer suddenly decided to shut down but actually showing the shutting off animation, i was quickly able to cancel it as there was some programs preventing it from shutting down, I was quickly able to get back to what i was doing, a little later it happened again but this time i could not cancel, but it was taking FOREVER to shut down, i left it for a while, still shutting down i didn't think it would should shut down, so i forcefully shut my laptop down. By the way i was getting random error messages from smartaudio3.exe it never caused any issues, but with the random shutting downs i'ved seem to notice the error popup at the same time, Seems to be related to some bang & olfusen audio driver, For some reason during the unistall of the driver my laptop became unresponsive but was not frozen, but it seemed to be fine after. It requested me to restart and again it refused to restart, i did some tweaking in the bios related to power management, when i booted up i noticed in device manager with random device errors (it now seems to be gone)

Some context: for a while now i've had issues with my battery or it seems that it is my battery , at first it would not last that long and it would shutdown spontaniously (just die). and i would need to charge it for it to turn on again, it kept doing that for a while, until my battery would refuse to charge and be stuck at 0%, Don't know what happened but suddenly my laptop started charging again, it seems to be holding it's charge, but each time i boot i get a message from my bios about the battery being in critical holding state or something like that.
Laptop: HP Elitebook X360 1030 g2
Also, i've always had virtualization enabled, and it's been working recently, and it's currently enabled in the UEFI, but windows is telling it's disabled. Very odd

#

Lol, i'm attempting to shutdown my laptop right now, this time it is refusing to shut down, not even "shutdown.exe /s" works absolutely nothing happens

Lol! You're not going to believe it! I just remembered, i had a old SD card i my sd card slot, it was courrpted and i remember seing in event viewer a bunch of errors related to disk, guess what i removed the SD card and my computer managed to shut down!, However i don't know why virtualization doesn't work... I will check my bios

green anchor
#

wooden wing
#

For vm's and such

didn't know a pesky sd card was causing all of those issues

these .dmp file of yours looks to be an issue with partmgr, volmgr. So some component in windows that handles your partition/volume. Seems to be caused by your bitlocker driver.

#

it is having power state issue

#

not transitioning in time
