Hello everyone, havn't ever posted here before so I'm unsure of the protocol. I'm running windows 8 on an HP intel core i7 laptop 16 gig ram radeon graphics card. Ran the 'run in test' upon boot which passed my memory, hd wlan and pci and processor. Not sure what the issue is and am wondering what the possible cause is
 

Could be your cooling fan has failed, if it runs for a while after being off for a time then crashes it's probably overheating. If it runs long enough from 'cold' try d'load and run Speccy to check temps
