Hi Community.
This is my first post here and I'm pretty unsure if I'm doing everything correct.
Some days ago I bought the new Counter-Strike Global Offensive and did really want to play it straight away. On my computer I got the programme Core Temp installed with Overheat Protection enabled, which puts the computer to Sleep when the core temperature gets closer than 5 °C to TjMax.
Sad enough, my computer will always be put to sleep when I play CS GO. Same happens by the way when I play F.E.A.R. 2. I hadn't played that game for quite a time. Don't know for sure if the issues there are new. Anyway, I can't remember ever having had such problems with F.E.A.R. 2 before.
With CS GO the problem occurs also under lowest graphics settings, haven't tested F.E.A.R. 2 under lowest so far.
My system:
Windows 7 Professional 64bit
i5-2410M
Geforce GT 540M 2GB
4 GB RAM
My boot partition is encrypted with TrueCrypt Serpent-AES which I hope doesn't have anything to do with the problem. I used to have my games partition encrypted as well, but decrypted it when i noticed the overheating issues as I thought this might put more load on the CPU on-the-fly-decrypting the files needed for playing.
Hope you guys got some ideas for me as I don't really see why the game is not working on my laptop.
