I've discovered a over heating problem with my EVE client, it only happens when in the CQ mode after about 15+ mins. My computer auto turns itself off to avoid processor damage, has anyone else had this happen on the test server? And is their a solution without simply disabling CQ?
Thanks,

Added specs to OP, so far solutions don't help me so much. :p

The thing is, it's able to handle graphics of this quality and higher before and at the moment it's only CQ that does it. Mystery...

I'll take that as the final option, before I part with cash... :p

Ok fiddled with settings CQ effects on low across board, have toshiba health monitor on and my CPU temperature sits at about 50% without EVE ~65% with EVE alt tabbed out and in space, when I dock it jumps to 72% then slowly creeps up towards 80%+ not had a shut off yet. But it's very strange that only CQ is doing it, all other games are fine.
Puzzling...

You talking temperatures or CPU usage? Last I looked temperature wasn't recorded in % so not sure what values you are quoting.
CPU temperature is shown in percent, i'm not sure why...

Yeah, but when it¦s that clogged up no amount of pristine air will help.
Also @OP watch out with the vacuum cleaner near electronics. It could easily generate static charges, which is deadly for such a packed hardware.
Best get yourself one of these compressed air cans and read up on cleaning guides on Youtube for your specific notebook.
Seems Toshiba were clever enough to design it so that you have go through the whole laptop, remove HDD, motherboard etc to get at the fan and cooling system, which I don't think I could trust myself to do myself.
