Lenovo Powers Off

my Lenovo p580 keeps powering off playing online game 5-10 minutes into playing. laptop is well ventilated with a cooling pad but seems to still power off, is there something in the laptop setting I need to configure so it doesnt shut down? I have another laptop that dont have this problem. I've paid 600.00 for this laptop and I'm starting to regret buying it. Any solution? Thank you

I believe that the game that you are trying to play may not meet the requirements by your Lenovo IdeaPad P580 laptop. If not, there might be other problem related to the power supply, battery or powercord. It is better to allow a computer technician to perform the troubleshooting for you. You can read the full specs of this laptop here:
