The laptop I use for work rarely connects to the internet other than to update it periodically, and the last time I used for leisure it was when we were away in September.
I took it with me on Monday and when I tried to use it, found it took ages to boot up and was hanging whenever I asked it to do anything. It wouldn't even switch off other than with the 'Off/On' button
It's a Lenovo Thinkpad running Windows 7.
Yesterday I tried to find what was wrong. Malware bytes found nothing but the more I use it the worse it is getting, so I booted into safe mode and it makes no difference.
I disabled all start up programmes and it makes no difference.
I tried to restore it to an earlier point but have found that all my system restore points are gone.
Event Viewer won't load as by then it has ground to a complete halt.
I did get a quick look at the thingummygig that tells you about CPU and that was normal, but I noticed the memory graph showed only 4% free at it's worst, and there is very little on the laptop at all which should be using that much.
Any ideas please?
Pat
