• Satellite Pro M70 overheating when playing games or watching DVDs

  Hello world

  my laptop (Satellite Pro M70) overheating regularly, especially when playing games or watching DVDs.
  Initially the cooling gets really hard, then the laptop would become hot, and shortly after that it stops completely. I ran it about 50% cpu power (DVD mode) for some time, which helps a little, but makes it much slower games.

  I do not know whence this problem, you have any ideas what I could do?

  Don't know if it's important, my graphics chip is the ATI Mobility Radeon X 700.

  Thanks in advance

  > My laptop (Satellite Pro M70) is overheating regularly himself, especially when playing games or watching DVDs.
  Still is it playing games and watching DVD movies to emphasize material for portable computers.
  Devices such as the CPU and GPU run with maximum efficiency and produce a lot of heat.
  This could lead to problems of overheating, especially if the cooling modules n t work properly.

  > I do not know whence this problem; you have any ideas what I could do?
  I think that the cooling modules don't cool the laptop properly because fans could not run with maximum efficiency because of the dust and debris.

  The same thing happened to me. I just cleaned the vents using a jet of compressed air. This jet of compressed air can be ordered from different computer resellers and it s a professional tool to perform this cleanup.

  I think you should test this.

  Good luck

• PC restarts only when playing games :(

  I was faced with this situation like 2 months ago and I think its gpu overheating I checked the temperature is 95 + the BCCode is 113

  And my features are

  Windows 7 Professional x 64 bit

  2 GB of Ram [1 x 1]

  NVIDIA 8400GS 1 GB [I know its really old, but there's a solution to solve this]

  Intel E7500 2.93 Ghz Core Duo

  Power supply - 450 Watt [I usually before 300 that I upgraded to 450 thinking he could fix but didn't]

  So pls help and answer the question, I hope you know these problems

  Yes - we know these problems.

  95 + what... (Too hot) Celsius or Fahrenheit (not too hot).

  To do this, then we can see what you have and eventually eliminate the cycles of message:

  Click on the button/ORB start in the lower left corner of your screen. Or, press the button of your keyboard Windows logo.

  In the type box:

  Msinfo32

  Select / click msinfo32.exe and the system information dialog box opens.

  Click System summary, click on edit, select all (Ctrl-A), copy (Ctrl-C) and then paste (Ctrl-V) the information back here in your next reply.

  For information about video drivers, expand components, click view, click on edit, select all (Ctrl-A), copy (Ctrl-C) and paste (Ctrl-V) feedback here.

  There will be some personal information (such as the user name and the name of the system), and anything that turns information private for you, simply delete the pasted information.

  In case it is NOT a temperature related problem you must configure your system to generate a dump of crash for analysis file so anyone can analyze the result.

  Here's how:

  On your desktop right click on advanced computer, system settings properties and make them look like this:

  

  There is no need to create the Minidump folder as window will create one if it takes.

  Then click OK, enough times to close all dialog boxes and restart your system for the changes to take effect.  After that restart, you can go back and check the new settings to make sure the adjustments 'stick '.

  There are a lot of temp monitoring programs.

  Some people like the free version of Speccy you can download here:

  https://www.Piriform.com/Speccy

  A good thing is when you launch it, then cut it, it will continue to show you the temp in the Windows System Tray/Notification area near the clock:

  

  Take note of the temperature when you are not playing games, so you can have a base line.

  Then play your game and see if you can recreate the problem of crash while monitoring the temp to see how hot things get before the crash (may take once or twice).

• Get an Access Violation error when playing games

  OP: Access Violation errors!

  I have download games on a game site that I trust and don't usually have problems. In the last 4 months, some of the new games that I downloaded and tried to play, give me the Access Violation error when I try to open the game to play the demo. Now just recently I noticed that several of my games that I bought and played for months, give me also Access Violation errors. I worked on it for months with people in customer service (on the site of games) and have not solved. The strange thing is, I can play some of these games on different websites without any problems or Violations of access at all. Yet the customer service people keep trying to 'fix' my computer, as if it were from my computer something to make this happen. At this point, I'm so frustrated that I had to try to get you all to see if anyone has experience this problem before and/or solved this kind of case before. I tried to turn off my Norton before download and play without success. I've updated everything that could be updated in regards to drivers, and such go.
  My system is Vista 32 bit, IE8, Norton Security and anti-virus.  Thanks for any help!

  Hello saund477,

  My research, I find that it is a known problem with Big fish games. I also see that some users were able to solve this problem and play games by disabling the antivirus program on their computer.

  I suggest that you turn off the Anti Virus program and check if you are able to play the game.

  Note: Please make sure that you enable the antivirus software after the test to keep your computer protected.

  You can refer to the thread below that I found that the forum of Big fish:

  I also suggest that you post your question to the Bigfish forum for a better answer to this question, because the problem is only with Bigfish games:

• Warning only when playing games coming

  Recently, while playing games on laptop there is a warning msg saying: the cooling system to burst failure turn off computer immediately. can't that playing games. any ideas would be great

  Hello

  Here's my idea: get the unit to a service provider!
  Your PC is probably not get enough cooling.
  Games usually generates a lot of heat, and thus can cause the message of cooling.

  Hope this helps

• Screen flashes black when playing games

  When I play the games. The screen flashes black for a few seconds then goes back and re-offend?

  After reading this description of problem a single sentence, it is not easy to tell a lot about your problem.

  Perhaps you should tell us something about your machine, pre-installed OS, display driver you are using and of course, be a bit more detail on this subject.

• Computer freezes (and screen changes colors) when playing games with Windows 7

  I upgraded from Windows Vista to Windows 7 view a month ago and since then I had problems. I'm going to play a game like Left 4 Dead 2, World of Warcraft, counter-strike: Source, etc and I suddenly freezes. My screen freezes and the colors a bit (some of the colors will turn red and some of the colors will turn to a brighter color, etc.). The sound will also freeze and repeat a few milliseconds what it was. My computer is plugged into a power bar and is kept nice and cold, with a fan who helps him at all times and my window still open - there is some dust out there but I don't think she'd cela.

  This happens maybe once or twice every two days, and it has never happened when I'm not in a game. It is not a memory problem, I'm only using about 2 GB, 3 GB when it arrives. I always end up having to press the power button on my computer to restart it.

  Help, please.

  Tyvak,
  The first suggestion that Aziz has is not the map upgrade but for the driver update.  After the upgrade to Windows 7, you must update all the drivers for your hardware (graphics, sound, NETWORK, card etc...).  The best way to do it is to go on the hardware manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers.  If you have a name brand PC (Dell, HP, etc.) then they usually all drivers for the hardware, but some (usually the drivers graphics) is perhaps not the most recent.  First, make sure that your drivers are up to date and then test the games.

• The screen flickers when playing game. With XFX Radeon HD 4670 1 GB _ Windows7

  I have Windows 7 64 bit with XFX Radeon HD 4670 1 GB SDDR3 card, my current resolution is 1920 x 1080 with 60 htz, whenever I have to play the game and use a lower resolution for the game then my graphic resolution, the screen flickers (it sparkles in any resolution), it goes black and back. and when I leave the game that I find my real resolution changed the resolution which has been put into play.

  My Windows is updated, and I have the latest version of the driver installed on the system from ATI.

  It is very annoying. Any help is appreciated.

  It seems that the problem was with card... maybe it was not set up correctly, wat I did was I removed the card and I cleaned the card with gum and put it back again once... its fantastic work right now... Thank you all for you answers. Narayan
