Hi,

Does it matter what port you use on the side of your laptop or was it just a specific port that causes that problem for it to shutdown or the screen would go black? Please do try these basic troubleshooting steps that may help.
- First is to do a hard reboot, remove the battery and unplug the AC adapter then press and hold the power button for 20 seconds then try booting it up again.
- If the same problem will persist, do try installing the latest drivers for your graphics and I/O ports like audio and USB.
- Last option would be to reinstall Windows itself and if that will still not work that could only mean it's a hardware problem.
