Hi,
Recently My laptop keeps on shutting down randomly. I did the virus check, registry fixing. Is it because of the heat problem?. The laptop is a bit warmer always. Is there any way to monitor it. Please help

If it is the overheating issue, and from what you say, it sounds a likely candidate, you might try CPUIdle Extreme available here:

It's not free, but it is capable of lowering your CPU temp enough that you might be able to overcome the shutdowns. Be sure to check that your PC's motherboard is supported!
