Hello dushaun

It won't help you much but read a bit over here;

http://www.experts-exchange.com/Har... In short it can be a millions things. Try to updates your drivers 1st...e.g. video and sound. If you're still under warranty i would bring it where you bought it. I'm sorry i can help you more than that.

thanks i'll try right now

hi dushaun,
I guess there could be two reasons for ur problem,either your system is over heating while running graphic intensive applications or...its a driver conflict. If ur system is heating up,all u can do is provide it additional cooling and check if cpu fans are running normal. if its a driver mismatch, go to the manufacture's webpage and always get the lates drivers for ur graphic card. This could solve the problem...
