    While under no stress or in game my G73JH just completely turns off. I have repasted and monitored temperatures, that does not appear to be the issue.

    Even after a brand new Win7 installation it continues to turn off (ruling out drivers?). I have seem something about the WLAN wires touching the reset button, but I have been unable to determine where this "button" is and would appreciate any help (hopefully pictures :D).

    Also, it might just be coincidental, but more often than not, it turns off right as I'm pressing the enter key.

    Any help is appreciated :)

    Are you running off AC or battery, or both?

    It does it regardless of running on AC (with or without battery in) and while running on just battery.
