I am having issues with my laptop. First absolutely no chance of having a virus. Its been checked with no less than three anti virus programs.
Here's the problem;
Less than 2 yrs old. Started hearing a loud fan starting and stopping infrequent.
Now I turn it on it boots very slow. If I am lucky enough to open a web browser it just locks up. I can click on icons and they open up from being minimized but they will not shut down and show not responding. I also cannot open up the task manager. I only mentioned the loud fan because I am leaning toward a faulty fan. Anyone have any expertise they can lend or had a similar advise. I can't get the computer to boot long enough to check the heat to see if the processor is too hot. Also, anyone recommend a shop I can take it in to have repaired if not too costly. I know these buggers can run up a repair tab real quick.
Any advise greatly appreciated.
