    I recommend Vista Codec Pack by Shark007 instead of these two. CCCP is fine, but KLite Code Pack is horrible.

    In the future, please take the time to rethink your thread titles as they don't really help people determine whether or not they can help you. I would suggest including a brief description of the problem you are experiencing.

    if you misspelled cpu for GPU, then its hot. If cpu IS what you meant, then you have a problem.

    My friend is getting really hot temps when gaming on an MSI barebones this summer and the laptop would actually shutoff. He didn't have this problem during the rest of the year so we attributed it to the summer heat. Considering your profile says you're in Texas maybe you should pick up a notebook cooler? You could also try popping your laptop open and blowing out any dust.
