don't mine with a laptop, they usually overheat pretty fast because their fan is crappy, and accumulate dust easily, there is no room inside a laptop

Download a temperature monitoring program to see if it is over heating, I wouldn't recommend mining with a laptop as they are not designed for that kind of load and may kill your laptop very fast.

Hello everyone,
I am new to bitcoin mining and I have a question that hopefully you will be able to answer.

I am currently looking into ASIC Miner but I decided to try out mining software on my laptop first. I know this is not recommended but I am simply testing things out before I purchase a miner.

My laptop has an NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M with 1 GB of GDDR5 SDRAM card and I am using MultiMiner as my software. When I first ran the program I was getting about 38Mh/s, now it dropped to ~600Kh/s

My question is why the huge drop? Could it be the heat?
