Computer and laptop · Question 1 of 2

Which operating system do you use?

A computer that slows down, crashes with a blue screen or won't turn on usually has one of several known causes: full disk, too many startup programs, overheating, failed update or failing hardware. The assistant will guide you through a few questions to the cause.

If you see an error message or a blue screen with a code, take a photo with your phone and send the image.

Most common problems

  • The computer has become very slow
  • The laptop won't turn on or turns off immediately
  • Blue screen (BSOD) with an error code
  • Windows update fails
  • The laptop overheats and is noisy
  • Is my computer good enough for what I need?

Check these first

  1. 1Restart, not shut downOn Windows, "Shut down" often doesn't fully shut down the system. Do a Restart and check if the problem remains.
  2. 2Free spaceIf the system disk is over 90% full, everything slows down. Delete temporary files and unnecessary programs.
  3. 3Startup programsIn Task Manager, Startup tab, disable programs you don't need immediately after boot.
  4. 4Temperature and ventilationKeep the laptop on a hard surface. A noisy fan and hot chassis mean dust needs to be cleaned.

Frequently asked questions

Why is my computer suddenly slow?

Most often due to a full disk, programs that start with the system, background updates, malware or an old HDD. The assistant narrows down the cause through questions.

What does a blue screen with a code mean?

The code (for example CRITICAL_PROCESS_DIED or MEMORY_MANAGEMENT) points to a driver, memory or system files. Send a screenshot and the assistant will explain the meaning and steps.

Is it worth upgrading or buying a new computer?

Often it's enough to add an SSD and more RAM. Write the model and what you need it for, and the assistant gives an estimate and approximate price.
