    Hehehehehehehehe.


    It was probably some form of overheat protection. Download a temp monitoring program i.e GPU-z or HWinfo and check your temps.

    As for overclocking, AMD GPU Clock tool.

    I read it that way too.
    You know what this means.
    Saulv has to marry his laptop, or someone's old man is going to be angry.

    I kinda get it after reading it like 15 times. I think he means his computer shut down by itself when he was chatting and it wouldn't turn on for 10 minutes. And now he wants overclocking tools which will probably make it worse. Still don't really get it...

    Yes. His comp turned off by itself. And 10 minutes later he was able to restart.

    Maybe he read some old posts about how if you overclock to 705/1100 you get less GSOD or something..

    Anyway, seems to have gone away, must have been the "extra warm" welcome ;-)

    The G73 needs to have its keyboard lag issue looked at. Like seriously.

    The thread name and the first post made me ROFL. But if seriously, it seems like an overheating. Check the vents. Make sure there's no dust.

    P.S.: Too bad the first post is already taken for a sig by someone. I'd do the same :)
