I need help. ASAP

My computer is screwing up, its not responding to anything i do, i click firefox, it doesnt load, i click minecraft, it doesnt load, only MS paint and cntrl alt delete loads. Everything looks alright though, just not the things that require the internet does not load. What is going on im so worried about my PC right now.


P.s i am typing this from my phone, cause like i said, internet related applications dont work.

 

Hmm and you're connected to internet right?

 

Yes, i am connected to the internet

 

Virus scan?

 

Have you tried turning it off and letting it cool off?

I worded this wrong- I just meant give it a reboot and wait a bit.

 

Ill give it a try when my pc reboots

 

I didnt go on Minecraft or any other applications that make my pc warm

 

Doesn't necessarily mean that it can't get warm.

 

I get this sometimes - It means your computer is lagging. Just restart it and you should be fine.

 

I have my room properly insulated

Im gonna run a full system scan just in case.. tell the others i may not be on today

 

Your internet is shit right now. Thats why.

 

Wait John is this the new computer you were supposed to get?

 

No, it's still his old one. We aren't sure when he's getting the new one.

 

He's getting the new one on his birthday, in December.

 

Ah, ok. That clears things up.

 

Honestly if I were you I would reinstall windows or use the computer as an excuse for your parents to get you your new one.

Btw have u tried system recovery or safe mode?

 

His computer is a windows HP desktop.
Not really....that....modern...

 

Im shure windows xp has some form of system recovery I've seen it before.

 

No, my current computer is a dinosaur. I wont be able to get my new computer until late september.

 

Just log out and log back in again.

Not every little problem that happens to your computer needs a full 24-hour CIA-level virus scan.
