Maybe an overheating issue? Check your temps with CoreTemp.

Well... If your laptop overheats , CPU will throttle down (CPU clock speed goes slower) . For example : 2.6GHz -> 1.2GHz

Your CPU thermal compound (thermal paste/thermal grease) is probably dead
Replace it with aftermarket one like Arctic MX-4 and you'll be fine Laptop: Youtube Channel (Vintage Tech/Watches) ::
Btw if you're overheating with NSMB you should worry. And don't even try other games 'til you change your stuff

Thanks for your help guys, looks like Ill be taking my laptop into the shop,
For now is there anyway to override the slowdown ? With games like Modern Warfare 3 for PC my laptop would overheat and complete shutdown (no slowdown). Is the slowdown a Dolphin protection thing ? Id rather my laptop shutoff than slowdown. Also if I kill this laptop I get a free one with warantee lol 09-15-2012, 01:30 AM
