Help please! Sudden Shutdown while playing games
Hello. I have a Dell Inspirion 3437, just bought it 3 months ago. It runs on Windows 8.1 when it was bought. But 2 month ago whenever I would play Darksiders 2, Batman Arkham Origins or Amalur Reckoning, it would suddenly shutdown after about 10-30 mins of playing! But when I would play Bioshock Infinite, my laptop doesn't have any problem.
I've read a lot on forums about this problem but all they are saying is it's about over heating, but I highly doubt that for my case because my laptop's just 3 months old and I have a cooler pad. Please help me anyone! Also, the Nvidia GeForce Experience doesn't open, but it appears on the taskbar.

have you tried downloading the latest drivers from nvidia? .go to there website and use the auto detect option to check which drivers are required.

hey toppergraph thanks for answering. does downloading the updates of drivers here in dell.com count? Because I've downloaded it and there's still no progress. But I'm going to try what you suggested. thanks man

i dont Know about dell driver downloads but i`m sure nvidia would have the most up to date driver for there chipset first before passing onto the pc manufaturers for aproval.
good luck and let me Know how you get on.
p.s its a very quiet forum this one iv`e only had 1 reply for info and that was after prompting .
