Please help me my laptop restart by itself

Hi guys I did not get a new laptop yet. I know I do,but my g570 Lenovo been restarting by it self. It been doing it twice on me. One time when I was playing a game and it restart it self. the 2nd time was today when I was reading something on line. I don't get any error. I have a cooling fan from over heating. When it over heat it shuts off. that was 1 year ago. But now it been resting it self with out me touching buttons. So can you tell why it doing it. It is old,and I know I need a new laptop. I am on it 24/7 because I love video games.

sounds like you are getting a BSOD however it reboots instead of showing you the BSOD. Go into your SYSTEM control panel, click advanced system settings to the left, then click the advanced tab, then click 'settings' on startup and recovery, then uncheck 'automatically restart' and then under write debugging information make sure 'small memory dump (256kb)' is selected.

Thank you very much I was able to do that.

Ok great! Now you will have to wait until it happens again and then read the blue screen error code (starts with 0x000) and also upload the 'dump' file located in C:\windows\minidump folder on the forum so we can analyze it.

Check if your computer is too hot, it may cause automatic shutdown and restart .
