Hi, my r13 laptop started to turn itself off on battery. I had a dent at right bottom corner of the keyboard body due to falling from the bike but it was working without any issue until recently. I don't think it is the reason.
Sometimes it lasts a few minutes before shutting off. Once I could turn it on while the laptop was in Tent position, then it worked for a while. I was using passive cooling both on battery and AC power. I changed the power settings to default now, the problem still persists.
I saw a similar issue reported below:

I don't have the same screws on the bottom and they seem to be tight.
Do you have any suggestions? Thanks!
