I have an ASUS M60J quad core i7 laptop with 64 bit windows 7 and a nvidia graphics card. I bought it used 4 months ago (no warranty) and it has been great until recently. I was palying game and it just shut off on me - I let it sit for a day and it was fine for a day until it shut off on me again. It shut off on me on the same game both times. I thought maybe it was the game so I stopped playing it and it happened again just browsing. Anyway, I can play light games, but when i try to play a heavy game (TF2) it just shuts off on me from overheating. I know its overheating because the temperature of my laptop gets up to 104 degrees celsius before shutting off. Whats weird about this is that the fan is working, but when I go in game it just stops except for very short bursts every 5 minutes that do not do anything to help my computer. It used to have the fan blowing constantly during the whole playthrough, and that worked fine. Whats wrong with my computer? Please help!
(Over the weekend I gamed a lot- more then usual and had it on non stop for 3 days, but that was a while ago, could it just need a rest?)
