Okay, I'm in over my head here. Sorry if I'm completely off, and this is entirely the wrong place to ask this, but I am this close to strangling my computer, so I fugured, why not try.
My computer is two years old, it's a lap-top of the Brand HP Pavillion, and there's a little number on it that says dv4073EA.
I have norton antivirus installed, and upon doing a system-check, nothing is amiss. I did however recieve a notification the other day that a virus had snuck past my firewall. Swell.
And yesterday my computer spontaneously shut down. Four times. Today it's done it thrice, but opposite of yesterday I was able to finish a full virus scan; still not finding anything that really shouldn't be there.
I've read around a bit, and seen that a possible problem may be overheating? But I don't really get how that could be, as my computer is sitting on my desk, and not at all overworking itself.
Does anyone have any idea what's the matter with my beloved computer? 'Cause I don't. I'm completely clueless when it comes to these things, and would really appreciate a little help ><
