Thread: Linux Mint 10 freezes

Hi all,I had Linux Mint 10 operating system installed on my Dell Inspiron 6400 Laptop. I also had an antivirus with new update so that my system could be safe. Previous night when browsing the internet my machine was freezing so I restarted the system so that the freezing problem could be resolved. After restarting the system I started the browser again to see if the freezing problem has been resolved but it wasn’t. There is white line appearing on my screen.

If making use of the laptop from long time then because of overheating issue your system might be freezing. The laptop may get overheated because the fan inside the system is not performing properly. The fan might be not performing because there might have been dirt accumulated on the fan. You should regularly clean the fan so that the overheating problem does not exist and the freezing problem gets eradicated.
