Problem with overheating
lately, i've been having troubles with overheating. i would be in the middle of a game and then my entire system will shut off, which is actually quite frustrating if you think about it. "god damn i just lost a good game." anyways, it doesnt seem like it is that hot to the touch, but i guess it is enough for it to shut off? i was wondering if there was anyway for me to deal with the overheating issues? btw i have a laptop...
How do you know it's overheating if it just randomly shuts off and it's not even that hot? It could be a part malfunction.

If it is overheating there is a under cooling fan for like 30bucks you can get at walmart or anywere like that. But if its not hot to touch I dont think it would be over heating.

no it is overheating because once i start it up it goes to this screen where it pitifully tries to make up for the disaster by apologizing and explaining that the laptop was too hot so it had no choice other than to shut off my laptop, despite the game that i was still playing, and cool off. but yeah my friend told me about that under cooling fan today and i'm definitely gonna have to check it out. it just seems weird because this never happened before when i would play CZ for hours earlier this year, but now all of a sudden this crap happens?
