    Firts,sorry for my poor English.

    Im using dv6tqe my video card is 7690m xt 1 G

    I played Diablo 3 for about 8hours yesterday and everything was fine.

    but few hours ago, my nb freeze when I play diablo 3.

    the screen didn't turn off, it just stay at the game scene,and i still can hear the music.

    but I cant do anything,I tried alt+tab, ctrl+alt+del,nothing happened..

    So I have to press the power button to force it shut down.

    After boot up,I cant play any game.I open a game, and it will freeze in about 10 secs.And I have to force my nb shut down again.

    then I try to swith to Intel hd 3000,everything is fine. I can play Diablo 3,no freeze anymore.

    But I want to play Diablo with my video card,I dunt like low effect...

    I have tried update my driver to Catalyst_12.3_UP2,but games still freeze..

    Anyone can help me? thx
