Hey,
I have had issues with my laptop crashing. Firstly, I was sure it was high temps. (I was at 95°C !!!) I have reapplied thermal paste and cleaned it up. Seemed to fix the problem for a while. Now, the crashes have started again at random points and intervals, in game or just in the menu. It does not seem to happen outside of gaming. Temps right now stay at steady 69-71°C max when gaming (checked via SpeedFan). Also, when any sound is playing when the freeze happens, it repeats it, making it into a buzzing noise if that is any help. Only thing that shuts it is a power cut via holding the power button for a few seconds.
Things I tried:
Reinstalling graphics drivers
Updating graphics drivers
Got lowest settings on everything
Checked I don't have anything running in the background
Have played the game before and ran just fine for days on end (HoTs)
I really would not want to do a factory reset, so is there something else you would recommend ?
Thanks lots for any feedback !!!
