    So I've been playing the game BF Bad Company 2 on my laptop. It's been working for like a week and now when I play for like 10-20 mins it just freeze and theres like a huge noise that never stops. Then I have to hold the power button to turn it off. The noise kind of sounds like the old nintendo when it gets stuck. I've checked the event log and it shows nothing crashing. No errors or nothing when I start it back up. Not overclocked or nothing. Using a laptop fan underneath it so it stays cool.
