Hi,

My laptop Asus A42J everytime when play games will auto turn off by itself when it gets hot.
I bought this laptop because ppl say it's a gaming laptop but now I cannot play any games.
I wanna play Starcraft II...

new or old laptop?
overheating laptops will surely shutdown automatically.
put vacuum cleaner hose near the outlet vent, and switch on to suck all that dust.

This model is pretty troublesome to open since the fan is located deep inside rclxub.gif

I that day open a asus a series to clean up. Everything is fine from disassemble to reassemble, but in the end the screen don't lit up, scared the shyt out of me.

But after a few more disassemble, I suddenly recalled that I actually twist the LCD wire a turn less, lol. Just because of a turn, the display now coming back, lol.

Btw, I will say asus laptop is pretty easy to disassemble if you are ok at the prying part.
