Select it and look through the list of updates made to your device recently. Right-click on the most recent one and uninstall it. Rollback any driver updates you might have initiated recently.
5) Uninstall faulty software:
It is very important to check for the compatibility of the software with your PC before installing it. If you have installed a program recently, consider uninstalling it. This can solve the internal power error quite easily.

Another way to solve this issue is to set the hard drive turn off timer to 0. Simply type in ‘Power options’ in the Windows search box. Click on ‘Edit power plan’ and go to ‘Change advanced power settings’. Click on ‘Hard disc’ to expand it and go to ‘Turn off hard disk after’. In the dialog box, set the value to 0.
