Re: [Thinkpad] Laptop freezing

It's messed up, that's why. You need to start the diagnostic process.

Start by running an anti virus scan, then ad-aware and spybot scans.

Look in your event logs for clues as well.

Might be software, even though you re-installed, I have no idea of what else
was loaded after.

Might be hardware, but "it freezed" really doesn't give much information to
work on.

You might consider what apps were running when it locked up, and if there is
a pattern.

If you're running with a dead battery, remove it. That can only lead to
trouble.

I took it to technisian and he said: "I don't know, but there is a
possibility that since battery is dead,and cooling system is working by
battery, then it is over heated" so he suggested me to replace the battery.
