Model Num: Inspiron 3537

After a boot for 10-15 minutes when I shut down Windows through the onscreen power button or through terminal commands the Windows show a screen of Windows shutting down and then the screen switches off. However the processor and the hard drive are both running as I can
<a> See the LED indicator lights for power , Hard-drive and Wifi to be still on.
<b> Hear the fan whirring through the wind vent.
This has been a recurrent occurrence for more than 6-7 times in the last two days since I bought the laptop and upgraded. The fact that it runs on battery or Mains Power does not seem to affect it as I have faced this issue on both Power sources.
What I have Done so Far
<1> Upgraded all the Drivers(including BIOS) from Dell's support site for my laptop.
<2> Upgraded AMD Radeon 8850M Graphics card drivers.
<3> Run full Diagnostic checks from BIOS
<4> Uninstalled all the apps from Windows Store that I had downloaded
<5> Unchecked everything absolutely non essential from Start up services.
