Hi there guys I have a question which im hoping you could answer to prevent further issues.

I've had a asus laptop one of 3 others and for a while its been giving me issues mainly randomly turning off ( when not on charge ) seemed to somewhat coincide with movement. I assumed something must be loose and shorting in there. Recently it did it again and then never came back on.

I opened it up to find 3 blown ics by the charging block ( i assume this due to the charged look of them). I took it to be replaced by a buddy of mine who knows a little more than I do. This laptop has very much been unused and never bumped or anything like that, what could have caused such a thing because. I ask because i assume under correction that if it was a short from say something loose my charging cable or a capacitor would it just blow first time?

Why did it keep doing it and turn on and not just blow its making me feel like there may be another issue and this is just the result of that.
