I've got this new laptop, not more than a few weeks old. Seems to function perfectly other than the fact that after about 15 minutes of usage (plugged in or not) the laptop starts to freeze. I try to bring up the task manager but I can never get it to load completely. Initially I'm able to tab through windows for a few minutes, but can't really exit any windows or perform much in the way of functions in those windows. There are no viruses/spyware on the laptop and its pretty barren as far as apps go, just a few harmless things.
I'm giving it a run through in safe mode, but I won't really know what is the problem if it works fine in safe mode, just that its probably not hardware.
Any other suggestions on where to look for troubleshooting?
