| Feb 26, 2018 at 4:49 | comment | added | Pratik | I guess it's a battery issue. Download CoconutBattery and see battery health and capacity. Since it's a 8 year old laptop chance is that the battery capacity is very less. I had this issue with my old iBook which was 7/8 years old which was good again after battery change. | |

You have an 8 year old laptop - the battery plays a significant (humongous) role here. What do you get when you issue the following command in the Terminal: cat /var/log/system.log | grep -i "shutdown cause"
