Hey, so my laptop wasnt used really for about a year. Before that I used to it mainly game, played wow and oblivion sometimes, and I never had any problems. My screen went out and I never replaced it for a long time, so just about a month ago I got it going again. Anyways I have played certain games on it and pretty much anything I play will end up shutting down my computer after a couple minutes saying it became warmer then expected. I did a search and saw about cleaning out the dust, Ive got an air compressor so im going to blow it out today. Also the only change I made to it was switching to a slower hard drive, from 7200 to 5400, so that should be even better on heat (hitachi travelstar) and from 1 gig of ram to 2. Its also got a 2ghz pentium m and a 7800gtx.
Is there anyway adding 1 more gig of ram could cause this? I highly doubt this... but still wondering. Also was wondering what kinda temps I should be seeing on certain components?
Thanks
