Hi, everyone
I have a problem with my presario x1418.
The problem is, my laptop is doing some direct shutdown when it start to work hard (or the heat is going high maybe)
The problem start when i was playing Counter-Strike:source, and suddenly my laptop power goes off (not a windows shutdown, but a direct power shut down)
At first i think that is a VGA card problem, but when i use a full system antivirus scan, it start to sudden shut down, too (after scanning until approx.68%).
I think that when the fan starts to work noisily (maybe when the processor work hard) it usually goes a sudden power off.

Can anyone help me with this problem?
Is it a problem from my processor or other hardware? or anyone have had the some problem as mine and how to fix it?

My proc is 1,6gHz, RAM memory: 768MB, and VGA: 9000 ATI Mobility Radeon with Omega driver 2.6.42

Thx..
