For the past 3 days whenever i play dota my laptop shuts down ( in game only) its the first time that this happened , i thought it was a heating issue so i took the laptop apart and i cleaned the fan and the problem persisted, i also updated the BIOS and the problem is still there, my physical memory usage is really high

I cant afford a new ram i also installed malware bytes to check for malware or viruses and i removed them what could the problem be or how can i lower my physical memory usage, my laptop is an acer aspire 5742 2gb ram core i5 heres a link for the image of the memory usage: http://postimg.org/image/le9il3997/

if you mean the battery settings theyre set to high performance its the first thing i did, the problem is that this didnt happen before it used to run fine
Update: i just got home and turned it on and while i was posting this reply the computer turned off , the only part thats hot is the heatsink but i cleaned it yesterday what do i do?
