Hey everyone,
I've been having this problem for quite a while now, but have only just decided to try and take some action against it. Basically, what happens is that my laptop (Toshiba Satellite) crashes whenever I try to play a game, I am in game for a few minutes and then suddenly the screen goes black and completely shuts down (As in I then have to press the power button once to turn it back on). When I reboot, there are no error messages or anything (same with when it shuts down), however I did check the event log viewer, and I have found 3 logs which seem to correspond exactly with the error times. They are as follows:

That is all I have really, I have no idea what it could be. At first I thought it was overheating, but now I am not so sure. If anyone could give any help, then it would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Tom
Edit: While I am pretty sure that this is the correct log file, I will run a game until it crashes and then make sure that I have the correct log file. Will update in a little while.
Edit #2: I think the original log was completely wrong, this is the one (I think) that was created when it shut down.
