Hello! I’ve been playing basically since GW2 came out and I’ve never had this issue before. I stopped playing for a few weeks since last month because I had to move houses. Now that I wanted to go back to it, I see there’s a big patch. Every time my pc tries to download it though it starts to overheat like crazy (my room isn’t hot or anything – it’s quite cold actually) and shut down. I make sure no other programs are running while it’s doing that but it still doesn’t change anything.
It is a laptop but it usually has no trouble handling something simple like a patch, or the game itself. I tried defrag, cleaning disk, deleted some old programs and such. I’m not really tech savvy so I’m not sure what’s causing the problem and I need answers explained in dumb speak please. xD
