Instant Shutdowns while watching videos
Greetings,
Laptop ACER 5750G,
Win 7 Pro 64 bit.
i5 2nd gen
Nvidia 540m GT
500 gb HD
4 GB ram
(Detailed Spec sheet attached)
History:
There has been a problem with the laptop since I got it, previously I used to get plenty of BSODs and insta-shutdowns. BSODs stemmed mostly from the drivers. So I reformatted the laptop and switched to win64 from win32 and it appears to be alot better now.
Current Issue:
However, I still get insta-shutdowns while watching videos (streaming and from HD). I know it is not overheating, I can play SC2 for hours. The temps are >80, while watching movies temps are alot less for GPU and CPU. I have even updated to the latest BIOS. I have not tested super extensively due to limited time but over the course of last month or so, most frequent shut downs occur while watching videos.
Pls advise, I'll really appreciate it,
Many Thanks!
