Hi, my Acer keeps shutting down whenever I start a game. It are not heavy or difficult game, but just supersimple games online. I looked it bit online, and found a lot about overheating, but it shuts down right away when I open a game, so I'm not sure if it is problem with the heating. I've only had for about a year and a half. Anyone any idea what to do?

What type of laptop is it? Acer makes a lot of laptops. If you can provide a link to it or if you write what model it is it might help troubleshoot the problem better.

As for the actual problem, you can tell when a laptop is overheating because it'll be quite hot to the touch, depending on the processor inside. It's going to be hard to diagnose the problem further though without more information on what type of laptop it is.
