Changing the Gpu solved my issue. In time it got worse, at first they were random, than after a while it would crash as soon as a game loaded afetr 5-10 seconds. I bought my card from Mokkin from ebay, the card is the clevo version.

Had the exact same problem as you, once gpu was stressed it switched off and turned itself one after 1-2 seconds. Replacing it with a 770m fixed it for me too.

Seems that my problem was the gpu since replacing it with a 770m stopped the random shutdowns!

Seems that the problem was the gpu, installed an nvidia 770m and no more shutdowns, now if only i can stop that cpu throttling, for some reason throttlestop is not working,

Edit: managed to stop throttling, everyhting is working like a charm, ty all for the help!

Sorry to hijack your thread, having the same problem as you but with a MSi GT683, at first it was totally random sometimes not shutting down for weeks, now as soon I run a gpu intensive application it shutdowns and restarts, ordered a new gpu last saturday we'll see how it goes with it. One thing I noticed that the laptop wont start on battery.

Not a stupid question at all, its the only thing that i didn't try, the only ram test done was the windows 7 one, no idea how good that is tbh. The laptop is at the repair centre, I can only wait and see now.

@ Inches As Suoah said, it shouldn't overvolt itself to 0.90v with the stock bios. Did some research (especially on this forum, awesome threads guys thx) and seems my best hassle free option is to install 770m bought from mokkin since it dosen't require any blind flashes or mainboard bios flashes.

@ Prostar Computer Yes it happens on both battery and ac plugged in, less frequently on battery.

@ Suah, Sadly its 3 weeks out of warranty, I will have it checked by a local technician to confirm that the gpu is faulty and review what options i have atm.

Yes, sometimes it shutdown durinng the MSi log screen, I think Gpu is slowly dying.

Hello All,

I'm having this weird problem for about 2 weeks now and seems that the problem is my Gpu (570m), sometimes when I launch a game it shutdowns and restarts automatically after 1-2 seconds. These auto shutdowns occur randomly sometimes it works for 3 hours without shutting down and sometimes i can barely log into windows.

Yesterday while looking at gpu-z for the 1 billionth time I noticed that my gpu voltage was @ 0.90Vwhile the core was 525MHz, while the gpu is at 0.90V it shutdowns after a few minutes, while it works flawlessly at 0.85V. I have never modded the bios and its kinda weird that it overvolt itself to 0.90V.

Today I tried to update to try to force 0.85V limit using svet tools but to no avail my gpu still goes to 0.90V, anyone that have a similar problem or some kind of workaround this issue?

Tools used: Svet Bios tuner, nvidia nspector.
