Wrong section..
Anyway, it could be that it's overheating. Regardless of the setting, the parts still create about the same heat. Try putting it on a stand and make sure that no fans are being blocked.

Don't do canyourunit...It says my Q6600, 4GB and a GTX260 can't run TF2 on high, but ingame I max EVERY setting out. It's all lies, don't believe that crap it says. Also, to the Darth, just because you just turn it on, doesn't mean it can't overheat. Blocked vents and fans can result to overheating.

You can try systemrequirementslab. Also try to get an external laptop fan to put it on

Use HWMonitor for temps, post them, (the highest they get counts, try to get a rough idea of temps when the crash is).

BTW;
Odd that you have that setup, the gfx card is out of production for a year now...

It's thesame site.

I can't really add much more then what Sakumo said about putting the laptop on a stand.
