Why is my laptop freezing up? ?

Question

My laptop is 2 years old, and it keeps on freezing these past weeks. When it freezes i just restart my laptop by pulling all the wires even the battery and it's okay but still freezes. I been googling, got some idea, they said it might because overheating.(My laptop have been overheated many time so I think that's the problem but now I got a fan.) My laptop had virus before but it got fixed. I also tried CRTL+ALT+DLT but don't work, tried command prompt by entering sfc\scannow, it make my laptop last longer but I dont think it help much after I am finished it gives me "Window resource protection found corrupt files but was unable to fix some of them" My laptop freezes when I dont touch move it for around 10+ minutes. I tried backing up my laptop, didn't work. Is there a way I can make my laptop stop freezing?

Answer 1

Your laptop sounds messed up. I recently had a laptop with a similar history and the same problems. I ended up deleting everything but the things required to run the laptop. A laptop freezing and running out of battery quick is usually a memory problem. Unless you are a computer genius I suggest getting someone to fix it for you. It won't be cheap, but its cheaper than replacing it.

Answer 2

Post the brand, model number, installed operating system when asking a question please.

Back up any important files then do a system recovery using the built in recovery partition or a set of recovery disc made for the laptop to put it back to factory with a new original operating system to correct the corrupt system files caused by the virus. Even after removing a virus it has damaged system files that need to be repaired.
