Help/Support Laptop overheats and makes much noise.. it's only few months old..

Ziest · December 22, 2015

Hey guys, so i've had this laptop for like 3-4 months. It's my school computer, and as far as i know, it has pretty good specs. Classmates can run skyrim on this smoothly, but i can barely use it.. everytime on launch, it takes less than a minute, and it sounds like my pc is about to blow up.. ._. I may have had a few viruses, and overran the pc a few times, but idk if its a way to fix this from the computer? Or do i have to replace something? if yes, what?

My pc gets overheated very easy, and it takes as much as only loading a site before my pc fan makes seriously much noise..

Any help? I may go to the School pc / tech reparation service, but they need a proper explanation on how this has happened lol. Saying i have overrun it wont help very much, so i consider that as the last resort.

Thanks guys, any help is appreciated. I need help, because having my laptop on my lap is uncomfortable, because it's too hot And its my freaking school computer! i need to have it for another 2 and a half years

3-4 months old.

Warranty?

Well, first of all, replacing parts on a laptop isn't a great idea. You could make a backup of anything you want to keep, and do a factory reset. If it still overheats quickly, something's wrong with the hardware.

Doesn't count when we buy it. They say it's a "own responsibility", and we've all agreed to it.

What do i do if something is wrong with the hardware? If it's not my fault or / im willing to pay, i can get my school to send it back to where we bought it for reparation pretty cheap.

If hardware is the problem, there is no other choice than sending it to repair.

You should try a factory reset first, though.
