N7110 keeps freezing when playing games.

Tried using a cooling fan and propping it up but no matter what i do, it always freezes when playing any games. Even bejeweled on facebook! Very frustrating. Thanks to any help in advance.

Hi,

I have a few more questions to understand the issue better:-

1. Have you observed this issue with one particular game or all the games?

2. Does the system heat up while you are playing games?

3. Update the latest version of BIOS and Video driver. You can refer to the following link and please select the Service Tag and correct Operating System:-

4. Please check the Game with the Developers website for new patches which can solve the issues.

5. Set the display to an optimal resolution, if not set already. Right click on the desktop – select Screen Resolution – select the one that says “Recommended”.

6. Increase the size of virtual memory. Refer to the following link for performing this step:-

Please respond with the result.
