DISORDERLY_SHUTDOWN

What it means

The PC lost power or was switched off while Windows was still writing, so the shutdown could not be completed cleanly.

Common causes

• A power cut or a hard reset while the PC was busy
• A failing power supply that drops under load
• An overheating CPU reaching its shutdown limit

How to fix it

1. Let Windows shut down completely next time; if it repeats, check the power supply and the wall socket.
2. Run chkdsk C: /f to repair what the unclean shutdown left behind.
3. Watch the CPU temperature under load; above about 95 °C the machine will keep shutting itself down.
