    Laptop just turned off suddenly


    I was playing Xcom on my laptop and the thing just turned off right away. When I was doing the tool thing to collect info, I saw a few errors pop up so I included a picture of one in the zip file that I added here. Thanks for the help.

    UPDATE: Sorry I combined a following post and put it here to save you guys the hassle of reading 3 posts. It just happened again and this time I had the intake vent clear. I checked the event viewer and the times this happened had one event ID is 507 and the other is 532 and the source is ESENT. I'm almost positive it's a bad HDD so if it is then I'm just getting an SSD. I assume this because the laptop worked fine for a year but it's always had some HDD quirks such as wallpapers not changing when I set them up as a slideshow and updates not being able to be completed. Sometimes it would freeze and become unresponsive for a few seconds, other times I would have to ctrl alt del to task manager and I would see the disk being used 100% when I wasn't even doing anything. And the only 2 times it shut off I was playing Xcom and I was loading a level from the HDD. I just figure those are HDD problems. I ran Seatools but the test I run never has a problem.

    This is the event viewer:

    Warning 11/28/2014 1:46:17 PM ESENT 507 Performance
    Warning 11/28/2014 1:46:16 PM ESENT 532 General

    Warning 11/28/2014 1:46:12 PM ESENT 532 General

    This is the description of the first warning:

This problem is likely due to faulty hardware. Please contact your hardware vendor for further assistance diagnosing the problem.

    My old Toshiba laptop would hard/instantaneous power off when the cpu would overheat watching youtube videos...

    I'd start with checking cpu temps, noting any activity causing climbing too quickly or above 65-75C....

    I have been monitoring my CPU temps and nothing's too high when it happens.

    I doubt anyone smart is going to touch your zip file,
    Post it as a normal jpeg attachment.

    (And as a side note, I'd be very surprised if any sort of hard drive issue would cause much other than a lock up/freeze/blue screen, vice a hard/instantaneous power off, but, not to say it's not possible, just unlikely)
