    I have this problem that the laptop would randomly shutdown when it's using battery. It never does this when it's plugged in. The shutdown is random and happens sometimes even when the laptop is in sleep. Any ideas what's causing this problem? O and btw, it is ovrclocked but happened when it's not overclocked too.

    I had this one time... unplugged power and "pow" system was off. Would NOT boot up again. Disconnect battery (was already charged) for a few seconds and all was ok again.
