Laptop Crashing.

[boxblizzard]

my immediately thought of crashing with laptops ually boils down to temp too high. maybe get some software on the web and moniter the temps. and ensure laptop gets enough air.

if it is a problem with the heat not read above yet then buy a laptop stand with built in air flow/air management. should act as an exhaust and help.

or buy a desktop :P

The 6864 is the same comp my brother has, the vents on that thing clog with dust pretty easily if you blow them out pretty often it seems to run just fine while gaming. If you use a can type air duster thing make sure you don't get close and spray the liquid into the laptop. Something about liquid and electricity doesn't sit well with computers :P

Cheers everyone, I'll get a compressed can of air sometime today.

I was looking at a few of those laptop cooling systems, and I think those are right in my alley.

The temperatures on my CPU/GPU are running relatively high; Ranging from 72-83C, so with some cleaning and external cooling hopefully that'll do the trick.
