I need someone to talk me down.

I've been waiting half an hour for my laptop to load up. I've tried three times to start it. It's just sitting here. I punched in my PIN, and I'm sitting here staring at my own smiling face my name under it and the little loading wheel. How long do I wait? I've already had seven vivid daydreams of me throwing my laptop to the floor and taking a sledgehammer to it.

Take the charger jack out of the laptop cout to 5 and put it in again. My laptop freezes up sometimes and this fixes it.

@LordShadowfire Awesome! It's basically a low charge situation. It happens when I plug the charger in the laptop before I plug it in the wall. You need to plug in into the wall first then the laptop.
I always had this issue since the day I bought the laptop. It's not really an issue just how these things work they are not very smart. Like if the plug makes a small spark while you are putting it in the wall it sends low current to parts of the laptop and you need to lose that charge.
I'm glad it worked haha

@markansas I did. Three times. I don't know what's going on with it. It just starts up so slowly. I finally got it to boot.

@LordShadowfire now run ccleaner and malwarebytes.

you can also hit control , alt and delete buttons at the same time . it will bring up task master and you can find which program is slowing ya down.
