Dark Souls 2 Shutting Off Laptop on Low
Okay so this is a VERY strange issue. But I have a (very old, beaten, soon to be replaced) laptop with an AMD Radeon, 4GBs of RAM, and a 512 GB HDD. I tried running Dark Souls 2, and it SHUTS OFF my laptop after a few minutes. When I named my character, lighting the first bonfire, and stepping into the mist, all shut my laptop down and I was not able to turn it back on for an hour later each time. Strange thing is, this happens on any graphics setting on Dark Souls 2, but I can run games like Call Of Duty: Black Ops, Battlefield 3, BioShock Infinite, and League Of Legends fine, on high, no problems. What could possibly be going on? My laptop isn't even hot when this happens.

You could use GEM/GeDoSaTo and scale down the graphics a bit to see if this will get things stable. Could also be that a specific component gets hot to localized for you to 'feel that it gets hot'. Give HWMonitor a try.
