i just got my laptop back from a service, one of the hinges broke and i had it replaced.
The problem now is that it keeps going to sleep while i'm using it(not that i'm running a program, i'm typeing and it goes to sleep).
I've checked the event viewer and what i get is "Sleep Reason: Button or Lid". My question is could thid be caused by a virus(is so how can i tell, it also happens when i input my password can a virus send the pc to sleep while the login screen is displayed) or did they just mess up the wireing and when i type something happens. Btw it only happens when i type.
Windows 7 Professional x64.
Asus N61JV.
Sorry for the quality of the question but i'm using my phone.

Malware, which main purpose is to shut itself down from operating, is something I would put into the "yeah, possible but implausible" corner.
You can look into the
Event Viewer
of Windows to find out the reason for the shutdown / sleep: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/open-event-viewer#1TC=windows-7It's more likely that your hardware does something funny: They keyboard not correct attached to the mainboard or some other malfaction.
