Hopefully the heat didn’t (literally) fry my GPU. Thanks, I think I’m just going to sleep this off to cool down the GPU (and myself). Fingers crossed!

If it’s a heating issue will it just resolve itself once fully cooled?

Hi,
Yes, fan seems fine (can hear it spin) and at the moment I’m using my ‘power saver’ graphic card to let the other one rest. :S

Started playing GW2 two days ago after 2 months of hibernation. I noticed that my laptop got really hot and then all of the sudden my graphic card started doing this fuzzy thing (see screen shot). I’m sure it has something to do with my graphic card because whenever I switch it to my ‘power saver’ graphic card the fuzzy stuff goes away. Although I can’t always use my ‘power saver’ graphic card.. because well, it’s not as good as my ‘good’ one.
Can anyone help me fix this, please.

PS.
I’m using ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5650 with updated drivers. The ‘power saver’ graphic card is Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator HD
