fm eats battery. Your battery must have died. Either get a new battery or have it plugged in when you are playing it

Is it getting hot, do you play any other games, how old is it, have you dropped it or anything on it?

I'm guessing that it overheats.
Check in the system Event Logs and look for events around the time your laptop turns off.
Tell me what it says.

Well, first, tell me what system you're running. Lol.And you're probably never cleaned the fan out in those 2-3 years, have you? That's probably the problem, then.I'll be honestly I haven't done that either. But that's because my laptop is a ***** to take apart.
