Hello!
I'm facing to a problem, by every boot (either normal, hibernation or sleep) the notebook (ASUS X550LB-XO114D) get to the Windows (10) booting, but after 1-2 seconds the notebook shuts down with a single short beeping noise. Second start always works, it gets to normal status.
What could be the problem?

Hi,

It may seem to be a bug of Windows 10 still. 🙁 But do try these following troubleshooting steps that may help.
- First is to run Windows Update and install all important updates.
- Download and install any latest driver update from Asus Support site.
- Disable all your startup items in Task Manager.
- Disable FastBoot inside Windows 10.
- Right click on the battery icon on the bottom right and select Power Option.
- Once open click on Choose what the power button do"
- You'll find Fast Boot option from there.
- Do observe you laptop once done.
