| When my computer was running very slow last week i did a restart and it just shut down, when restarting it only got as far as the windows page and shut down again, this happened 3 or 4 times. Yesterday when it was running slow again and freezing i tried a system restore to the day before and it shut down again, i had to restart it myself. The computer was great after on both occasions. My anti-virus and anti spy-ware are all up to date and run every morning. The computer is 2 yrs old and is not very often switched off. Help please? |

| Open the case and clean all the fans, it's probably overheating.

| Use a small 1/2 inch paint brush. The CPU fan is the important one to clean.
