Hi guys,
Little Backstory
I'm new to forums I normally spend time reading them and trying to find an answer to my problems.
However, it appears I can't find anyone with a similar problem.
So I bought my Laptop second hand and I didn't realise how much of a pain it would be. The person I have bought the laptop from for some reason refuses to transfer the warranty so in PC Specialists eyes, they still own it. So sending it off for a service is unfortunately out of the question.
I don't believe they sold me a faulty laptop, as it was working for a good month perfectly. It was only till went I went abroad and returned these errors appeared. However, the laptop was with me at all times and handled with care (As I'd just purchased it)
The problem
I believe I am facing an issue called Screen Tearing? I am in no means a tech person and don't have the technical term. I've only got photos.
Once this happens the laptop will crash and restart. I had thought that this happens only when the power cable is connected but it now happens when the battery cable is disconnected.
There little heat coming out of the fans and no signs of the laptop struggling. The only part that does heat up would be around the centre of the keyboard.
I have cleaned all the fans. One thing I did notice, is the fan on the left the wrong way round? (The one on the right has an arrow pointing to the vents)
I've read up that I might need to replace all the thermal paste, however, I didn't want to go down this route yet because of my lack of experience.
A few specs.
GTX 1070
64gb Ram
i7 processor
If anyone can help this would be much appreciated
Thanks
