my laptop - only 6 months has been having problems since Sept. - getting so slooooooowwwwww it might as well be 10 yrs old sometimes :(
seriously uncool
late Sept i actually uploaded and backed-up everything on my hard and did a complete hard drive wipe and reboot - at least i think it did ;P
lately it sounds like the fan is running 80-90% of the time which has been a worry inducing change.
but then Fri night i climbed the stairs to Eli's room and got all cozy on his bed and we enjoyed come minecraft adventuring together (sidenote: the more i play minecraft the more i enjoy it!) and my laptop got super scary hot.
i mean like i could feel the heat through the leftside of the keyboard. and then my screen went black - that was freaky! i put it away for the night, afraid it had died...
last night i again climbed the stairs to Eli's room and got all cozy and began adventuring (and died w/ all this stuff i had mined on me - boo for that).
again it got super, super hot and so i shut it down. i had been playing less than 30 mins ya'll! i had it on this large book i use for a laptop table so overheating because of being on my lap was NOT the problem.
it got SO HOT that at the back where the top and base are hinged together was almost too hot to touch without pain. what is going on?!?
so, i'm hoping for help and/or answers. it is under warranty still - though w/ four weeks left in Fall quarter i really don't want to give it up for service - i will if i have to.
also, most of the time when i try to shut it off these days it'll warn me that a program is still open and ask if i want to shut it down before turning off - except that the place where it says it is showing me which program is open is completely blank....
