Now, the most common reason for that is a bad power supply. Of course, in that case Who Crashed won't be able to tell you much. So that alone would be a reason you would suspect the power supply. In a desktop computer you just unbolt the old one, buy a new one from one of thousands of sources, bolt it in and you're done.
In your laptop, you're at the tender mercies of HP, who typically has parts for one year, then sells them out, turning your almost brand new computer into a brick. An unfixable brick with a simple problem because all the parts are available from HP only and they can't be bothered to support their laptop for at least 5 years.
There is a reason that desktop computers exist.
