I cleaned out the vents best I could. I'm looking for a good graphics card but I'll have to work a little harder.
I use this for the cooling pad http://www.sears.com/imountek-laptop-usb-folding-table-w-2-cooling-fan-mouse/p-SPM6001947505.
Edit: thank you for the advice.

Do you have a program with which you can monitor the temperature ?
This way you could find out if it is in fact overheating

No, I never heard of such a program. Any suggestions?
Thanks for your help, in any case. It's still crashing (windows says "sims 3 has stopped working" now).- crinrict12 years agoHero+
There's usually one with the graphics card that tells you how hot it is. Otherwise you can try coretemp (just google)
Is your computer no longer shutting off ? Is it just the game now ?
