Hi all,
First post here in years. The short of it is that I have an Asus ROG GL703GM (8gig) that will randomly reboot whilst playing Ark: Survival evolved, Chrome, other times or even whilst booting up after previous reboot.
This is happening on a complete re-install of windows and software. The laptop is just out of warranty (of course it is!)
I have run "Star Swarm", 3dMark, HeavyLoad, MemTest86 as well as other burn-in testing software and NONE OF THOSE are reporducing the reboot issue. Yet I'm dubious to call this a software issue, because this is on a clean install of everything and these programs work fine on my main PC.
I am now running the laptop on a cooling pad, but it is still rebooting, so I don't think it's a heating issue.
I'm tempted to undervolt just a smidge to make sure that there's no isolated heat issue causing the reboot (?)
So, my question is this: Any ideas what I could do to stop the reboot issue?
[Please don't say "Just don't play ark", because it will still happen at other times 😆]
It's out of warranty so I'm happy to take it apart (dont that a lot in the past to replace other peoples laptops parts).
Any help and advice (within reason ) would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks eveyone,
Mike
