Faulty charging equipment or old batteries can cause your device to charge slowly or not charge at all. A common error message is that the device is plugged in but not charging. This error occurs due to a faulty battery or due to a Microsoft Windows bug.
If you look at the bottom right corner of the device, you will see a battery icon. By hovering over this icon, you will learn about the battery status. Before concluding that it’s a hardware or battery problem, check the power socket first. Older laptops may require battery replacement. However, it is best to have the problem checked by a repair technician.
Frequent reboots
Nothing can be more annoying than rebooting your laptop or desktop right in the middle of work, especially if you haven’t saved the file yet. Frequent reboots can be caused by various hardware issues or even system file corruption in Windows or the registry. Such a problem requires the immediate attention of a computer repair specialist.
Heating problem
It doesn’t matter if the outside temperature is cool as the device can still get warm due to internal problems. The most common cause is a buildup of lint in the fans, which can cause the device to heat up.
Also, another culprit is that the silicone paste used to transfer heat from the GPU and CPU dries out after a few years, leading to the overheating problem.
In many laptops, 105 degrees is a safe temperature at which the device will automatically turn off. Constant exposure to heat can cause permanent damage to some parts of your device, requiring immediate troubleshooting.
Laptop won’t turn on
If your device no longer shows signs of life, it can be very worrisome. This may be due to the charger not providing enough voltage to charge the battery. It could also be due to damage to the Jack or DC input on the motherboard. This problem is best left to the experts, as it means that the motherboard must be removed for repair.
Frozen screen
Often this problem can be solved simply by restarting the device. However, if your device is constantly freezing, which affects your work, it can be the result of various problems.
