Laptop always crashes in games. How so?

For several months, my laptop (alienware m17x r4) crashes whenever I'm in the middle of a game. At first it started with Diablo, my PC suddenly turned black and shut down. Did it then made and there was neither an error nor anything else. Then it continued with World of Warcraft and now with Assassin's Creed. I can't update my PC or my graphics card (Intel core i7), for example. There's then an error code (code 80070103). I tried to google but find nothing that really helps me.

Maybe one of you knows.

Could possibly be a Kühlunsproblem.

(so clean the fan and if necessary renew the thermal grease).

It may be that your laptop overheats, and therefore automatically turns off, so that fire and hardware damage is excluded. Either buy external cooler, or drive to the technician. If you dare synonymous sometimes screw on the laptop and clean the fan and if necessary renew the thermal grease Does the laptop still crashes in other activities, for example, during normal surfing on the Internet?

No. I could even surf the internet for several days and watch videos without it crashing.

Ok, then that's probably because the laptop is too warm when playing, since many games corresponding performance or Also need appropriate cooling power. For laptops, this is usually something critical, if then the fan dusty Bzw is uncleaned that can lead to crashes. I would just screw on the laptop, clean the fan, and as I said, if necessary, renew the thermal grease. (Enough tutorials you can find on YouTube) Should not bring anything that is unlikely just drive to the technician, or you grow an external cooler that you put under your laptop.
