hi Im on my iPod writings this because my laptop won't work. It loads up for a minute or so, maybe not even fully started, then the screen freezes with maybe a blue pattern and the laptop shuts down. It does this immediately if I run a game. Graphics card fail ? -Hecky
Depends of what kind of game are you playing, maybe the graphic card dosent support that game this why shuts down.
I've played it before, and it's not just that game that makes it fail so I don't think thats the problem. thanks though
You have pretty much diagnosed your own problem, it sounds like your video card is going out. Ten to one I would say that you are overheating. The problem of course is that you are on a laptop and there is not much you can do to fix it yourself. If you are out of warranty, open up the case and clean it out. If you are still under warranty get it sent in for repair.
