Knights on laptop

[Rizzla]

When i play Knights on a laptop i have atm, the comp just dies after a few min, dont know if it is just knights because its the only game i have played on it sofar as it isn't my comp. I have the cord in, and dont use the battery, but when it dies the battery lamp blinks red as if it wasn't any battery left, eventho i use the cord.
Maybe not the right place to ask, just wondering if anyone experienced the same.

Thank you, but the problem is, i played Knights on it before without any problem at all, but now all of a sudden the comp decides to die on me everytime wich is abit annoying since thats the only thing i can play atm!

Blow the fans, and make an airflow underneath by putting stuff under the laptop (at least on one side), the fans may be overheating, and because more power is being used by knights, it can't take it

Would probably work, but since it's not my comp i can't really do that :s and btw, to format is the most boring thing to do, altho you need it once in awhile

You can make sure the laptop is taking power from the mains and not the battery by powering off, removing the battery, plugging it in to mains and playing. I had to do this on an old laptop that had a funked up battery.

DONT PLAY GAMES ON laptop computers, they are not build for it!!!!!!!!

If you play 30min or so its ok but longer than that and they cant remove the heat, feel on it were the CPU and grafic card is.

Obviously you can put it on something and have fans that blows on it but why have a laptop then.

Conclusions, if you’re going to play many games and long time get a regular computer.

I vote for looking in your laptop's manual, and seeing what that type of warning means. It may very well mean overheating.

I've had my laptop for about a 1 1/4 years now, and it conked out on me, although I did play games on it all the time (HL2, KO, BF2 etc)

Yeah it depends on the laptop, I play KO for many hours at a time on laptops and have no problems.

No laptop is made for it, take Sandra 2005 from SiSoftware and set it to run Burn-in Wizard, select only CPU, run Priority: Normal and Run continuously, then let it run so for 2-3h.

I had the same problem. My computer just shut down. I went down to tech support and they told me it was overheating. So what they did was use compressed air and blew all the dust out. It works perfectly now!!! All i have to do is use compressed air every once in a while where the hot air come out.

Hope this helps!!
