HP ProBook 4515s: My laptop suddenly shuts down without any prompt. I tried to turn it back on and after a few seconds, it's completely dead again.
 
Sounds like it's shutting down from being overheated. Make sure you keep enough ventilation around the laptop, dont set it down on blankets, pillows etc, anything that will restrict airflow.... might also be good to clean out the fans themselves.
