Laptop freezes while gaming

[Danish Sayed]

So my laptop is a Dell Inspiron L502X and for the past few months, while gaming league, it freezes and if im lucky it gives me a message saying "some kernel driver has stopped responding but has now recovered". Then the game continues and freezes again after a a couple of minutes. This happens if im gaming with the charger plugged in. If I game without the charger plug, the game runs smooth and it does not freeze or anything. I have all the latest drivers and I even tried removing the battery so its running on the charger but that also freezes the laptop. Im pretty helpless at this point, if anyone could help me, Id greatly appreciate it.

go to safe mode in windows, go to control panel, go to device manger and disable both processor

You could try going into your power options and changing the settings so that they are the same for battery as well as ac.

Could be a number of issues. May be Motherboard issue as well.

Try Changing the settings first in your power options.

Im not too sure if it is a motherboard issue because, Command & Conquer Generals: Zero Hour works just fine with the charger plugged in. Counter-Strike 1.6 works fine too. But, CoD MW3 freezes the laptop if played with the charger plugged in. So, maybe its some video card issue?
