Laptop keeps shutting down
My new Studio 17 laptop keeps unexpectedly shutting down. Then a blue screen pops up saying it shut itself down to protect itself - but i don't know what it's protecting itself from and don't know how to stop this happening.

My guess would be overheating. Are there any signs of it doing so? (ie: fans nor running, hot to the touch, etc....)
I would contact tech support assuming you are under warranty.

Take an air canister and blow out the dust vents.

npike,
Vista 64-bit system with SP1, correct?
