Laptop powers down when it moved

You have an issue with your memory or a memory slot more than likely.

Remove the Power Cord, Remove the Battery, Remove the cover on the bottom of the laptop that houses the memory then remove one of thememory chips. Set the chip aside then try rebooting the computer. If it boots, then you know the memory chip you set aside is bad so mark an x onit with an ink pen. If it fails to boot then move the chip to the nextmemory slot and try rebooting. If it fails take the chip out and set itaside, then put the other chip in and try booting it in both slots. If itboots, just to verify that the chip set aside is bad, mark an x on it and putit into the open memory chip slot and try booting.

Hello.

The most common reasons for power issues are the battery, power adapter/cord and power jack.

If you move/wiggle the power adapter at the point where it connects to the laptop, and the power goes off and on, the power jack is the problem.

The power jack is inside the laptop and either needs soldering or replacement.

If no change, the power adapter is probably faulty and needs replacement.

Also, power off and remove the battery. If the laptop powers on with just the adapter connected, your battery is faulty.

For laptops, remove the heatsink and apply new thermal paste or the motherboard may need replacing.

Leave the power jack fix and heatsink application to an expert.

Hope this helps.

Start the computer.
Enter BIOS SETUP mode.
Check the "power" settings.
Your computer is currently set to be "on" after the end of a power-outage. Change it to "last state",
i.e., turn it on if was on when the power was removed, or leave it off if it was off when the power was removed. Or, change it to "stay off" after power is restored.

you can also use your laptop without the battery, just plug its power cord while using for the mean time, the battery may be has low charge to the point that it can't turn on your laptop, insert your battery then plugin your power cord to charge your battery
