I have a Toshiba Satellite A-205 laptop with Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit Service Pack 1 and sometimes it just turns off without a warning. It has turned off when I was using it so I know that it's not the power plan that will put it to sleep after a couple of minutes. I do play Tribal Trouble 2 and the game makes my computer HOT but sometimes it turns off when I'm not playing the game. I don't think it's a virus because I have Avast and a Norton AntiVirus Scan program and I think they're up to date. I might have one though but i doubt it. I do play the game a lot and since I don't know much about laptops, I was wondering if something could melt in the laptop that would cause the laptop to turn off without warning. If so, what should I do? The laptop is connected to the power cord when it turns off and I almost always keep it on the power cord.

Thank you in advance,
Youknowwho

Hi Camnz, When you use the laptop, is it on your lap? or a cushy surface? Or a desk?

Overheating probably...
