I have a P4, and I was too hasty in claiming it was fixed. Its not -_-

I can't think of any thing you could do besides make sure there is at least a little space under your laptop and then get a small fan that doesn't annoy you too much and turn it on when ever you play games.

you can buy small fans that plug into your USB port...that might be a short term solution lol :biggrin:

I had a similar problem with one of my older computers ... it would spontaneously reset (generally in the middle of games). I ran a memtest86 test on it, and the ram was completely shot. You should try that and see if that's the problem (or at least eliminate it from the possible problems).
