    Not had my G73JH out for a while, tried playing WOW and it just hangs the PC, tried a modded 11.9 set and still does the same. Used to work!!!

    Any ideas what I should be using these days?

    You mean the screen freezes right? Whenever I see this issue the first thing I do is unplug the AC and the battery and hold the power button for 45 sec, this occurs on my G73JW sometimes if I had a sudden shutdown before.

    Some times it does, sometimes it just hangs.
