E SD Card with less than
1% memory, How do I clean that part of my computer up. Computer will state High CPU, how do I fix this?
 


How old is the computer? Has it ever been cleaned out before? You don't give a whole lot of information but if I had to guess the laptop is probably overheating causing the CPU to reach it's thermal limit and it's shutting down. You have to clean out the fan and heatsink grill and re-apply thermal paste. If you don't know how to do it I would take it to a computer repair shop.

My computer is less than 2 years old. the fan works without any problems. I don't have alot of things that I do on my computer. It's a Gateway. Thank for the info.
 
How much you do on it doesn't really matter. If it's never been cleaned out it can still over heat especially if the heatsink grill is loaded with dust. Like I said I would clean it out and re-apply thermal paste. You can also download HW Monitor and see what your temps are like.
