Hi, I'm new in the community. I bought a laptop in 2010. While I'm playing games (League of Legends, GTA SA:MP, etc) sometimes my laptop gets extremely slow, its FPS drops to 8-9. But in the rest time, the game is very smooth. Also my PC gets very hot while playing. Also PC suddenly freezes, sound stutters, I can't do anything unless I restart PC with my PC's power button. I can't even do Ctrl + Alt + del.

Here is specifications:

Acer Aspire 5732ZG
Intel Pentium processor T4400 (2.2GHz, 800 Mhz FSB)
ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4570 (Up to 1791MB HyperMemory)
15.6" HD LCD
3 GB Memory
250 GB HDD
Acer Nplify 802.11b/g/n

I listed what I see on the label of my computer above. Please help me, I really need help. If anything else is needed, I can give.

Thanks in advance.

Hi again, I swept my laptop's back with a vacuum cleaner without disassemblying. Because I'm afraid to disassemble it, I think I can't re-assemble its parts. Still same problem but should I disassemble it and try vacuuming again?

Update
Also I'm getting a warning on Windows when I click battery icon ("Consider replacing your battery"):

This warning is showing up since 8-9 months ago. I have to use my laptop with its charger always. Otherwise, it drains very fast. If this is related with the problem.

I was suggesting just getting somekind of a brush and cleaning the vents or blowing the vents with compressed air either with a can of compressed air or a compressor(those things often found in a car workshop to pump the car wheels).

Thanks man it worked. Here's what I did:
1. I cleaned vents with a clean painting brush.
2. I cleaned vents with vacuum cleaner on its maximum power (max. vacuuming level).

I'm not having the overheating and freeze issue. I hope it continues so.
