Good day,

I know this question was asked a lot but i have not found a solution in over a month.

My Samsung Laptop crashes every time i play video games (this happened one time while running my browser ).

It doesnt matter which game and on which settings. It takes usally 10 - 30 min to crash. The crash itself is a grey screen with vertical lines or a blue screen without the white text. 2 seconds before the crash the sound starts to lag.

My PC data :
- AMD Radeon HD 6970M
- intel 2630qm cpu
- 16 gb ram
- windows 7 ,64 bit

Thing i already tried :
- the latest and oldest driver for my gpu
- lowering settings
- setting my pc on factory settings
- giving my pc a 1 week break
etc.

Here is what it lokks like ( this is not my computer ):

Hi can you download msi afterburner and hwmonitor / realtemp / cotemp and monitor CPU / GPU temperatures.

Might need to change some thermal paste and hopefully the mobo isn't cooked.

Btw , i just installed the latest version of my gpu driver.
It says installation sucessful, but during the installation it came to warnings.

( sorry for my bad english, i m from germany and please ask me if you did not understand what i was trying to say )
