Find your gpu here?

Mining hardware comparison (https://litecoin.info/Mining_hardware_comparison)

However, in my opinion don't use a laptop for mining. It will crash and burn in no-time and you'll be left with nothing but an expensive paperweight .

Pretty normal for such slow laptop. Laptops in general are not suited for mining. PC's are better but buy dedicated miner :) more fun.

You are wasting your time with a laptop, it is not really meant to mine and if you ruin the GPU you will be very sad.  You will see a LOT of people that do GPU mining use open air as cooling is needed.  I never recommend mining on a laptop.

And also litecoin is now mined by asics so mining LTC with a GPU is a bad idea in itself.   But if you really want to GPU mine look at desktop's and Ether.

you should never do altcoin/bitcoin mining on a laptop unless you want it to get broken ... second the age of mining on scypt based coins like litecoin on computer is long gone .. if u want to mine something and i do not recommend that at all since you are using a laptop you should try some cpu based coins like Magi coin or Espers coin you can find them in altcoin section
