If u mean If My laptop can handle cod:4 ... No according to the "can you run it" -systems requirement lab- My laptop does not have the proper GPU to run this game...So this maybe is the problem? that means no more cod4? I think The previous time was when I had started playing cod4

I started searching something very interesting...I was thinking that directx9 made my pc overheats (since I use directx7 in cod2) But then I found something VERYYYY Important...I saw that a laptop can be overheated if the Battery is falsy...In this case YES my battery is way falsy...It leaves for 5 min without power supply...this maybe causes the overheating? I hope so 
If yes then I will say to my dad buy me one ASAP I just need ur assurement
Link found that info : Video/graphics card problems - Fixing video and graphics problems - Page 1 of 2 (Btw I was serching for directx9 but in the description of google was saying something with the overheating and the battery so I just did a ctrl + f thing to find it I did not read the whole article - I searched " Slow down ")
"If the PC crashes, is unstable, or begins to slow down, it could be caused overheating. If removing the side panel from the case fixes the problem, add another fan inside the case to improve the airflow. If more than one fan is installed make sure that they work in conjunction to cool the PC and don't fight each other. If the correct drivers are installed and the PC is being properly cooled and it is still crashing or is unstable, perhaps the power supply is inadequate. If so, then it will have to be replaced."

Sounds like your laptop isn't up to running COD4. If it keeps overheating, you risk damaging the machine.

Yeah a new battery is a good idea but get it from hp as other after market ones may give rise to more issues or not work at all,as for cod 4 that is a no to running it the machine is just not up to it if you keep overheating as cl0udedth0ught says it will seriously damage the computer ie brick it

Ok got it No more cod4 I still wana say that there is a problem with my compapibility with directx 9.. Since I saw that limbo uses directx 9 (another game) and that game overheats too... It is a "2d" game btw... (Utube it... it is a bit famous)... or another thought I made is that my laptop can just not handle cod4...so it starts having overheating problems...according to that games that need some good software to play on (Limbo just uses a good shading way I suppose) will start overheating too
So the solution would be : Do not push my computer for a 1-2 weeks and then go back to action *but not cod4 or higher games* right? and using directx7 mostly
thanks for da help btw ^^

Yeap I know. I already use lowest settings configs that makes m settings even lower and I am in a server that allows disabing the lightings and all the muzzle flash dust, smoke etc.
from fps I am fine 50-125 (125 maxed for me) .... Now may u please tell me how can I check If I have errors in the mobile intel 4 chipset?
