Has this problem been with you the entire time you've owned the laptop? Is returning it an option? There is a chance that there is a hardware problem, either with the graphics subsystem or with the memory (some laptops share the system memory with the graphics card). You say that you tried an updated driver... why not try the next-older driver or the one previous to that, and see if there is any improvement.

thanks, dngrsone for your suggestions.
The problems seemed to have started a week or two after purchasing the laptop.
I could return it, but it takes soooo long to install everything and i also need it, so i'm a bit hesitant to do so.
I will try with older drivers to see if that helps.

Finally back from vacations etc...
I've tried different drivers and with no luck.
I'm pretty sure it's a problem of overheating, since it was a lot worse when the weather was hotter and normally if it happens and I restart the computer, the problem still persists, while if I wait for 30 minutes it's gone again.
I've decided to deliver it for repair and went back to using my old laptop meanwhile. I hope it will be quick.
Thanks for the help dngrsone, here are your points.
