My fren installed Linux Mint on my cheap LP laptop six months ago, it works fine. But since a few days ago, it's shutting down without warning at 70% battery level. Computer is one year old, I only use it casually. How do I run a battery test? I don't have HP Support Assistant downloaded. I have read that other people had same problem, even with replacement battery..

Is it overheating? Some laptops will shut down if too hot. Maybe need to open it up and get the dust out of the fans.
