Sony Vaio Pro 13 BSOD (I think)

Hi all,

I have just recently got myself a Sony Vaio Pro 13 and I think I am having issues in regards to a BSOD. The symptoms seem to be related to power/standby but could be wrong.

Yesterday, I shut the lid and went away. Got back from lunch and realised the fan was on full-speed while the lid was down. On opening up the lid, blank screen and only way to get out of it was a holding the power button.

And same thing happened last night. The difference this time was that I had a message on-screen saying my pc had shutdown unexpectedly etc.

I'm running Windows 8 pro 64bit and having followed the instructions on the forum in regards to logs, I have attached these for your reference.

Appreciate any help in identifying the culprit.

Thanks
AJ

Thanks for the response. I don't think it is fast start causing it as the laptop is not in a shutdown state but sleep state. Having said that, I disabled it anyway to test it but 2-3am, same issue.

On top of this, having then turned it off using the switch/hold down for a few seconds as I did not want to wake up at that time to investigate, it then turned itself on again in it's case which was in a bag while I drove to work. Nothing could have nudged the switch so its' not that but as you can imagine, we're in a heatwave at the moment so to say the laptop was HOT by the time I got it out of the case at work is not even close to what it was.

I think I'll do a full format tonight and see if it happens again.
