Toshiba Satellite C50D-B-12C

Jan 8, 2015 3:32AM PST

I've only had my Laptop for a few weeks and at first it worked fine, although I was getting lots of pop ups which I ignored
Since New Year, It began to become very slow, as in reeeeaaaally slow and now it doesn't work at all.
It turns on but just stays on a blank screen
I need it fixed ASAP but the Toshiba website has been useless
