Asus X54C-RB92 Troubleshooting

Computer powers down quickly after charging.

If the computer turns off after disconnection of the adapter, the battery is most likely faulty. A reason for this may be due to the declined use of battery supporters. Despite the Li-on battery for the Asus computer, the battery is “self-discharge” and damages the battery memory.

To fix this:

Remove the Li-ion battery and directly use power supply to charge the laptop. Remove all portable external devices, such as USB, memory card, internet cable, HDMI, and CD-ROM. Then expand partition of hard drive or memory card.

Open Start, enter Device Manager, and select it from the list of results. Under Sound, video, and game controllers, select and open your sound card . Select the Driver tab, and select Update Driver. If Windows doesn't find a new driver, look for one on the ASUS website and follow the instructions.

If that doesn't work, select Cancel and, on the Playback tab, select another default device (if you have one). Select the Disable all enhancements check box, and try to play audio again. Do this for each default device.
