CPU/RAM usage spikes, music files going bad, something suspicious?

I know my system is 64 bit. Do you want me to do the full install/uninstall one or the zip file?

Do the full install/uninstall version.

Since I got the new battery, not getting as hot, no more blue screens. Local computer store said overheoverheatining my BSODs, but I ran into another problem. They said to charge the new battery la or eight hours for the first use, did that. Then tey said to use the battery until it was at 0%, to program the battery. Was doing that, after can use it on AC or battery and can switch as much as I want, charge 2-3 hrs. Except for one thing that arose jus a few minutes ago, PC suddenly shut off with new battery, on battery, when battery was still at about 20%. Not booting up on new battery at all now. Just shows a small flash of screen and shuts off again. By small, I mean 1-2 seconds. Any advice? Try AC despite what local computer store said? Would do eset and update and scan with MSE but don't have internet, and this that just arose.

I would suspect that the battery is actually dead and not at 20%. Why can't you connect to the internet?

[Coco423]

I can connect to the internet, it's just thatI don't have the internet. Can't afford internet. I have to post this on a prepaid phone.

 Also, I got no critical battery warning or brightness decrease saying battery was almost dead, not sure if volume was turned down. Also, in the screen flash, I got a green battery light.

Saw that new battery voltage was slightly higher than old one (by 0.3) and the Wh was 32 less, 53 instead of 85. I thought to check the voltage. I am trying to cooperate, the best I can right now.

Is it possible that your laptop is overheating? Can you hear the fans running?

[Coco423]

The laptop us not overheating now, not lately. I just check and check constantly. It was when I got the BSODs.

[SuperDave]

Download BlueScreenView to your desktop.
BlueScreenView
unzip downloaded file and double click on BlueScreenView.exe to run the program.
when scanning is done, go to EDIT - Select All
Go to FILE - SAVE Selected Items, and save the report as BSOD.txt
Open BSOD.txt in Notepad, copy all of the content, and paste it into your next reply.

[Coco423]

Will still download, but said not getting them now.

[SuperDave]

Will still download, but said not getting them now.

Sorry, I don't understand what you mean.

[Coco423]

I am not getting the BSODs now. But, will still install BlueScreenView.

Sorry, I don't understand what you mean.

[SuperDave]

If you're not getting BSOD's don't bother with that scan. How is the computer working now?

Hi Coco,

Did you buy an original Lenovo battery the correct one for your laptop?
OEM batteries can work if they are exactly the same specs as the original but it appears the one you received isn't.
Do you remember when you were asking in the hardware section about your laptop getting really hot and me explaining it could make it unreliable and/or damage the ATI graphics chip if you kept using it, Seems you have kept using it.
Did you get the over heating problem fixed by a technician?
With the on going problems over the last 3 months, once the laptop is fixed it would pay to use the Lenovo factory restore disks to reload windows.
*****Backup your important files first!*****

I let someone use it and they forgot how to turn the brightness up and pounded on it a couple months ago. Now I need a new hard drive.
