I have an older Acer laptop, and it seems to be having issues with it turning off and on randomly and without warning. I’ve confirmed it isn’t a battery issue, and I don’t know what else it could be. Sometimes it runs for an hour or two before shutting off again, so I don’t think it could be a cpu or gpu issue either.

The laptop is a Acer Aspire 5 A515-51G-53F2, with a GeForce 940MX and an i5-7200U
It is running Windows 10
If you need any more info just ask, and I can also send a video of it shutting down if it would help

Thanks in advance
 
You might want to inspect the entire motherboard for the laptop(after disassembly) and see if you can visibly see any power delivery/circuitry that might've blown or burnt out. If you have a laptop repair shop nearby, I'd highly recommend visiting them to see if there's anything wrong electrically speaking on the laptop.

I’ve checked it all over, and there isn’t any visible damage. The nearest computer repair shop is quite far away though, so is there anything I can try myself?
