Hi, I hope you are having a great day.

Does anyone have any idea why my Compaq Presario Laptop
(XP Home) shuts down during virus checking? It happens
when I run Trend Micro's internet virus scan and Norton
Antivirus. After downloading profiles from Trend Micro
web site, I disconnect laptop from the Internet, then run
the virus checker. I run Norton, which is installed on the
laptop.

Both antivirus programs are not running at the same time;
however, a few minutes into either virus check, the laptop
just cuts off, no warning, no message. It's just like you
pull the power source.

Thanks in advance and have a great day.

They might not be running at the same time but they may still be interfering with each other
