As the title says, my laptop (Lenovo Y560p) turns off randomly but only when playing some games. My computer hasn't always done this but I don't know what happened to make it start.
There is no BSOD, the computer just turns off (no shutdown process). Through Event Viewer I see a critical event recorded "Event 41, Kernel-Power."
It seems very unlikely that my laptop is overheating because some graphics intensive games play fine.
I have had this problem for far too long and I am tired of trying to fix it alone so I am hoping that someone out there has a solution.
Thanks for all of the help!
