    Hello. My friend got a 7805u but after some hours of gaming and normal use it locks up. Is it normal? The temps are ok. Is it a driver problem? He is using windows 7 oem (he got windows 7 oem from the company that he is working).

    The gpuc, hdd, and cpu temps are about 40 to 60 °C. But gpu is going up to 80 °C after some hours of gaming. The fan is working fine. In my country the temp in summer is about 43 °C. He doesn't have a laptop cooler. The laptop doesn't locks up while is in a game but when is doing other stuff. It locks up in random times. What other info do you need?
