because i hhave managed to cripple myself i decided to install some point and click games on my laptop. i had curse of monkey island so installed that. however after a few minutes of playing the laptop heats up and shuts off. thought it was the game.
anyway today i bought a few cheap games, theme hospital, startopia and tropico. have onl tried the 1st so far but it more or less did the same thing. its weird. i think it might be something to do with the games running off cds. because half life and conter strike run fine [mostly, they overheat after a few hours] so i want to know if anything can be done to stop it screwing up.
i have attached my less than 6 months old laptops specs...
