Do you have an additional cooling pad for the laptop?
And how old is it? Warranty status?
no cooling pad and warranty. 2-3 years old notebook. futuremark does not recognize the gpu heat. i stressed out the laptop with games like fifa and gta 4 since a while. the shutdown only happens when whatching flash vids i believe. it happens often now.
OK, get one if possible. Also post your specs please. Your laptop model/make.
- Click on User CP on the top right of this page
- Click on Edit System Spec
- Fill in your computer specs
Have you ever dismantled and cleared the dust inside the laptop?
Check videos on youtube on how to do that.
i used compressed can to clean it, but i cant reach the fan directly by opening the case. it's complicated. as i say thats not normal. gta 4 overheats the nbook more but no bsods while playing. but watching vids do?
Post specs please.
Maybe you can ask a friend to help you with opening the case.
Which browser do you use? Try disabling hardware acceleration.
disabled yesterday hardware ac. in video and firefox browser. still bsod. i have no friends :)
could you found a usefull info from minidump? nest to x124 errors 0x0000000 error and some others appear too
That's long. Are you willing to do one now?
If yes, link to the tutorial is here:
After the clean install make sure you have the latest and Chipset/MB drivers, Video drivers, sound card drivers etc. Do not install any non essential programs.
For older hardware sometimes lowering the clock of the GPU (or hardware component) helps.
BTW, have you performed hard drive and memory tests?
