Help from computers people
I bought a new laptop almost a year ago, ever since I had it it locks up. When I am on the net it simplt freezes and I have to turn it off and on again.
It now does it approx 5/6 times a night and it is annoying the pants off me. Do I changed Windows Vista rubbish hoping that is the issue or do I send it back under warranty. I have 9 days left LOL

Re: Help from computers people
How hot does it get. Liz's laptop plays up if it sits on our laps as it doesnt get enough cool air through it and it overheats...

Re: Help from computers people
I'd guess at a bad memory stick - get somebody to run a check on it if you can.

Re: Help from computers people
64,000 dollar question with pc's - main suspects ar anti-virus OR any kind of search you have loaded such as MS live search or google desktop - they were my culprits, the scalliwags !

Re: Help from computers people
I'm confused hun, you already sent an email to send it back.
 At the end of the day, if it's not performing as you'd expect, and it's under warranty, that's what the warranty is for. If you do keep it though (as I know what you're like), don't let me forget to have a decent look at it when I'm back down there, like you did last time.

Re: Help from computers people
At the end of the day, you could spend ages f*cking with it and still not find the cause of it. Its got warranty cover on it so send it back.
