I'm guessing you have a Thinkpad T500. Laptops are very prone to overheating with EU3-engine games. If the driver update doesn't help you need to monitor you temperatures; either the generic SpeedFan or the Thinkpad-specfic TPFanControl.Ok, I think I found the appropriate stuff...turns out I was using the driver from back in November (when I first got the system). Hopefully this works, though while I'm crossing my fingers I'm also trying to come up with a plan B that doesn't involve things like water-cooling and the like.
