    Hello, and im sorry if this issue has been covered, but I recently "upgraded" to xp from vista. I have a dv9410us with amd turion 64 dual pross.

    After installing most of my drivers (in device manager, there are still 3 yellow question marks that say Base System Device, I dont know what these are or how to identify them.) the problem I am having is running particularly WoW. after changing to xp I am seeing a massive upgrade of fps. the problem that persists is that after playing for about 10-40 minutes my laptop will just turn off. now shutting down or anything, just bam, off. if I try to turn it on, the lights on the laptop will turn on, and the lights for the hotkeys will turn on as well, but then the laptop will turn off again. this process will take not even a second. I usually have to wait about 10-15 seconds before I can actually turn my laptop on again. any help with this would be most appreciated.
