Just to the start menu or about 5 seconds of custscenes/gameplay
Flash games/internet games run for a couple of minutes

Reaching 90c is a real problem, especially if that happens in less than 5min. Think about the temp it will reach if it didn't crash and you were gaming continuously for more than 30min, it would've gone over 100c which can damage the CPU. So the crashing seems like a protection from damaging the CPU.

The case isn't getting hot or the exhaust from the fan? That could mean a bad air flow inside the laptop.

I think it's obvious that you have an overheating problem. The way to fix this is too find a hardware professional or company in your area that would dismantle the lap top and clean it properly, reapply thermal paste too.

He fixed nothing at all but he told me to play in balanced mode and lower something down to 99% so i am have been playing skyrim since 5:00 and it is running 30-60FPS and the temps go to 70-90 and 100 for a second it has not crashed yet after this ill test black flag because that runs on 30FPs-10FPs

Also i could not find any body that didnt require shipping(we are low on cash at the moment)

When i am idle it goes on 40-60 degrees


Played for half an hour and crash

40-60c on idle is somewhat okay, but reaching 100c when gaming can damage the laptop's components. This is happening because of the turbo boost that the CPU is doing. It seems like you've set lower power settings now and the CPU isn't using turbo boost anymore and thus the lower temp (compared to previous results).

The AMD A6-3420M (Codename Llano) is a quad-core processor for entry level laptops. It is part of the Fusion family of APUs (=Accelerated Processing Units) and features an integrated Radeon HD 6520G graphics card. The processor core is clocked at 1.4 GHz base clock speed and is able to automatically overclock up to 2.4 GHz (TurboCore, depending on temperature and used cores).

It activates automatically, but you should do the opposite thing. You need to put your laptop in some power saving mode/entertainment. Whichever prevents using the TurboCore. This will give you time to solve the problem as CPU's temp will stay within the limit and games won't crash.
