hello room..I just formatted my Acer aspire E11 it hangs..But since i collected it whenever i browse on it shows page not responsive kill or wait a lot....So i called the engr that formatted it to lay my complain.He said it may be the processor..Pls my observation is that the only visible antivirus on my laptop presently is smadav could this problem be caused by non existence of strong antivirus

Why not install avast and CCleaner, run them and see what happens next.

The most important is the update of Engine and Virus Definitions.

The Engine is a part of the program that scans your computer for potential threats based on the Virus Definitions.

The Virus Definitions database is what the program uses to identify threats to your computer. The update adds new known virus definitions to the program.

The Program version updates provides bug fixes and improvements to the previous one.

Just recently, my PC froze and I fixed it. Two days later, it developed other complex issues. It gets very hot and gives off a smell like something is burning. I guess thats why the battery hardly lasts up to two hours now which even after a full charge. Also, the windows always suddenly restarts each time I put it on.
It's a hp 250 and it doesnt come with a fan.

What did you do prior to getting this error message? Have you tried using Recovery Manager? What's your operating system?

Good morning gurus in the house,

IamNat:

I don't think you do. Download CCleaner and Advanced Computercare 9.3, and that would simply cleanout all the junk regularly.

You're welcome. Bug fix is a correction to an error/ fault in a program. Okay.

Yes, there is. Get a USB Hard Drive Enclosure (SATA/ IDE).

Note: Always remember to power off your PC and unplug power cord before touching internal components

Do a cleanup...Search Disk Cleanup and open, Click the Disk Cleanup button.
Select the drive you want to cleanup. You should see the amount of space your files take.
Select the types of files you want to delete and click OK.

It's a hp 250 and it doesnt come with a fan.

If it didn't come with a fan, it's meant for light and basic use. Don't expect it to survive with heavy use (Video and Photo editing, Games and other resource-hungry programs).

Do a regular Disk Cleanup, Get a good and updated Antivirus for Malware and Adware scan, Make your Browser lightweight (less customizations and extensions), Disable Windows animation, Uninstall unused programs.

Ok. Go to Device Manager, expand Universal Serial Bus Controllers, right-click on each of them and Update Driver Software, select Browse my computer for driver software, select Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer, choose the model name that corresponds to the controller you want to update, click Next, Close.

If the Update doesn’t solve the problem. Uninstall each controllers, then restart. They should install automatically.


Note: Make sure you update all before you restart, in case you're prompt to.

Alternatively

Remove your battery and hold down the power button for 30 seconds.
