Laptop goes to sleep/hibernation mode randomly

My laptop goes to rest mode on itself aproximatelly every 5 minutes.

 

Prior to this a repair guy changed the cooler on it since it died this morning and he used a similar one so we could get the laptop working. Is there a possibility that the cooler is affecting the magnetic field of the HALL sensor (The laptop's lid magnets) and causes it to go to sleep mode?

Have you checked the power and sleep settings in Windows? Sometimes laptops are set to 5 minutes for display timeout by default.

The laptop's battery is dead so I've set every power setting for when the laptop is plugged in to never. Also just set the battery ones hoping it does something.

from what you said, if you plugged the laptop in and device still goes to sleep/hibernate after setting it to never, and you just recently change the cooler. chances are the cooler isnt working properly either because its not seated properly causing the cooler not cooling the cpu/gpu properly causing it to go to hibernation or the cooler isnt good enough to handle the cpu/gpu and your laptop went on hibernation to avoid over heating.

my very old laptop has this issue too where the device would just shut it self down after few minutes of using it and turns out the fan can barely moves thanks to the dust resulting with the cpu not getting enough cooling
