RollingJ Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 Thanks. Windows 10 or11? I'll have a think tomorrow morning, but two questions -do you keep it up-to-date and have you ever had it serviced? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RollingJ Posted September 7 Share Posted September 7 @cressida - having thought about this, as you have neglected you PC, the best advice I can give is to take it to a reputable computer engineer and get it serviced. Apart from anything else, it will be full of dust and gunk which will be causing it to overheat, stressing components and ultimately, possibly killing it.
