What are laptop symptoms to detect pc problems?

PC Laptop problems??????????????????????…

• so i was on my HP laptop the other day, until it started to freeze completely; I used the on/off button to physically shut down the computer, and when I tried to boot it back up, I was allowed to choose whether to boot the PC normally or in "safemode", as expected. I booted it normally, and it froze on the "Windows is starting" screen, the animation wouldn't even start. I waited several minutes for Windows to boot and eventually the windows cursor appeared on the screen, however it was obviously in the wrong resolution (a lot bigger (and wider than what's proportional) and blurrier than normal), then I recieved a blue background (it wasn't plain blue though, it was like a wallpaper) and the command prompt thingy came up stating exactly this: Microsoft <R> Windows Script Host Version 5.8 Copyright <C> Microsoft Corporation.

• Answer:

  Eventually you might need to fdisk, reformat your HP laptop hard disk clean and reinstall OS. Before going that route, try following simple fixes to see if the problem goes away. Remove the battery and charger/ac adapter/power cord from your HP laptop, press and hold the power button for 20 seconds to discharge any residual current inside the laptop. This clears your RAM and is like a hardware reset. Replace the battery and charger/ac adapter/power cord and turn your HP laptop on. Boot in "safe mode". As it starts up press F8, the computer ask you if you'd like to start in safe mode. Highlight "safe mode" and press enter. See if your HP laptop works normal. If it runs normal now, do the following maintenance and tune up, Uninstall unnecessary programs and applications. Scan with a antivirus program Scan with a spyware/malware program DEFRAG C: CHKDSK C: Clean up and repair registry problems with registry repair software of your choice Use external harddrive for all your future downloads. If the problem persists, did you check if it could be your HP laptop power cord or power source problem? Defective or insufficient power supply might cause error messages that are misleading. Take the battery out and power on your laptop with the charger only. Make sure your laptop power jack and charger plug tip are securely connected. Did you notice the power jack loose? You can find laptop power jack on ebay. Fixing and soldering the power jack requires professional skill though. The charger green/blue LED should be on. If not, replace the defective charger.HP laptop battery charger has its own limited lifespan and does not last forever, consider buying a lifetime warranty charger online from company like topmic.com
