Hello,
I have a Dell XPS435 (about 5 years old, I think) that is acting up. Sometimes on boot up,it will just freeze, forcing me to hard-boot. Lately, it just won't even boot up and if it does, it will just shut down sometime shortly thereafter (30 mins or so). I'm looking at speccy specs right now and the temp is pretty high, but I don't know what the median temp is (never had to before now ) I'm guessing the fan is going out?
the system specs are below:
Operating System
Windows 10 Pro 64-bit
CPU
Intel Core i7 920 @ 2.67GHz 144 °F
Bloomfield 45nm Technology
RAM
8.00GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 531MHz (7-7-7-20)
Motherboard
DELL Inc. 0X501H (CPU 1) 115 °F
Graphics
SMS27A550H (1920x1080@60Hz)
E2242 (1920x1080@60Hz)
1792MB NVIDIA GeForce GTX 260 (NVIDIA) 135 °F
Storage
596GB Western Digital WDC (SATA) 108 °F
1863GB Western Digital (SATA) 108 °F
Optical Drives
HL-DT-ST DVD+-RW GH50N
If anyone can shed light on this I would really appreciate it. Or if there are specific things I can try to troubleshoot myself, also appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Cat Roll
