Other than it crashes. I have 2 items to tackle.
1. Are you doing the canned air to the vents every 1st of the month?
(how and why is on the web.)
2. Is it free of adware/malware?
How? Use Grif's advice at http://www.cnet.com/forums/discussions/how-to-remove-pup-option-603542/#post-f742c795-5881-433b-a29b-6d758efe5cd3
This has been an on-and-off problem for a while now. Earlier this summer (early June) my Acer Aspire laptop started having a problem where the screen would go black and everything would stop working while the laptop was still running. This would happen after 10 or so minutes of my laptop being turned on. After a few days this problem went away, only to return a few weeks later. The exact same thing was happening, and it went away again after a few days, only to once again return around a month later, and then go away again after a few days. Now the problem has returned and it's been going on for about a week, much longer than usual.
Does anyone have any ideas about what the issue is and how I should fix it? I cleaned the inside and the fan the first time I had the problem but it didn't fix anything. Sorry for such a long question
