Continuing our discussion on signs that your laptop may be ailing, Mytour presents the next commonly observed manifestations.
4. CPU Cooling Fan Malfunction
Signs: The laptop starts up and runs normally, but after a while, it experiences a power failure (completely turns off or restarts). This recurring phenomenon follows a cycle, with cases where the laptop needs to wait for 5 - 10 minutes before it can be restarted.
Solution: Clean the CPU fan thoroughly, apply oil to the contact points. If the situation doesn't improve, consider replacing the CPU fan!
5. CMOS Battery Issue
Signs: When starting the computer, it won't go to the main screen but displays a blue screen with an English message. The system date and time are incorrect, and even after adjustment, the issue persists in subsequent startups.
Solution: The solution is quite simple – replace the CMOS battery.
Hope these signs are useful for you in detecting symptoms of your laptop starting to exhibit 'symptoms' of damage. Wishing you success!
