Turning off "EC Support" has solved the issue for me. Thanks!

I noticed upon updating to the latest version that HWiNFO is causing my old laptop to shut down unceremoniously. I've worked it out to that as when it doesn't start up the PC is stable and up for an extended time, but if it's running, anywhere from a minute to 5 minutes later the screen will...

As I was unable to find any reliable method to identify how this could be converted to a byte count, this bug report can be closed.
