Hi, i've been having trouble for quite a long time with my acer notebook 8930g - intel core 2 duo processor T9550 (2.66 GHZ, 1066 MHz FSB 6MB L2 cache) - 18,4" Full HD 1080p acer CineCrystal LCD - Nvidia GeForce 9700M GT Turbocache - 4Gb DDR3 - 1000GB Dual HDD(500GBx2) those are the specs, iv'e read on a LOT of forums problems like mine though iv'e never found a solution for my problem, i think its a special one! so what is the problem?: If i'm playing a game, (Battlefield2, The sims 3, ...) the Laptop Shuts down all of a sudden after a little while. i'll tell you what iv'e tried, and what i'm sure of i tried: - Cleaning out all the dust - changing my Nvidia settings (conformant texture clamp -> Use OpenGL spec. Trilinear texture optimization -> Enabled Force mipmapping -> Trilinear Vsync -> Forced enabled is what they recommended to change, though i can't find the mindmapping or texture clamp so i haven't been able to test that one out a 100%) - checking my laptop on spyware - turning my laptop upside down and shaking it a little bit (yes that was a - --- solution that worked for someone) - playing the games on low resolution - putting a ventilation cooler under my laptop - reinstalling the games i'm Sure its not a heating problem cause my laptop never exceeds its maximum heat level which iv'e checked with a program i can't recall the name of. i'm playing the games (more like Trying to play..) with the laptop plugged in to the power cable and my battery is doing fine by the way. the laptop is less than a year old and i bought it new So? any ideas to what it might be ? i'd REALY appreciate the help! and even more a solution! thanks in advance Nati

Is it always the same time that the pc restarts? Do you have the latest drivers. Latest directx. Latest windows updates?
