I have a HP OMEN 16-B1371TX LAPTOP (Intel i7-12th Generation, RTX 3070TI, 16GB ram). I spent a lot of money on this.
My Games are crashing after 10-15 minutes into it. If I lower the settings, it might stay for another 5-10 minutes and then it crashes.
I have done all the things recommended, like updating chipset software, nVidia drivers, Windows Updates and so on. It is still the same.
I am using 3dMark to test my laptop display driver. Sometimes the tests go through and sometimes the tests crash in the middle.
My laptop is still under warranty.
Can I get laptop exchanged with a new version?
Thanks,

Hi @CreativeArts,
Welcome to the HP Support Community!
Thanks for reaching out about your query regarding your laptop!
We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution.
Try these steps:
1. Cooling and Overheating Issues
Clean Dust:
- Use compressed air to clean dust out of the vents and fans.
Check Ventilation:
- Ensure the laptop is on a flat, hard surface to allow proper airflow.
- Consider using a cooling pad.
OMEN Gaming Hub Settings:
- Open the OMEN Gaming Hub.
- Check and adjust the performance settings to ensure optimum cooling.
2. Monitor System Temperatures
Download Hardware Monitoring Software:
- Tools like HWMonitor or MSI Afterburner can monitor system temperatures.
Observe Temperatures:
- Check if temperatures spike before crashes. If they do, overheating might be the issue.
3. Check for Software Conflicts
Background Processes:
- Press Ctrl + Shift + Esc to open Task Manager.
- Check for heavy background processes consuming system resources.
Disable Unnecessary Programs:
- Disable startup programs and background applications that might interfere:
- Windows + R > type msconfig > Startup tab > disable unnecessary items.
4. RAM and Storage Diagnostics
Windows Memory Diagnostic:
- Windows + R > type mdsched.exe > choose to restart and check for problems.
Check Disk for Errors:
- Windows + R > type chkdsk /f /r > follow the on-screen prompts.
5. Driver Rollback
- Roll Back NVIDIA Drivers:
- Device Manager > Display Adapters > NVIDIA RTX 3070TI > Properties > Driver tab > Roll Back Driver.
I hope this helps.
