Sounds like you need a pihole.

The hat is neat.
Sounds amazing. Onto the steam wishlist it goes.
You start with base HP at level 1. Every time you level up, you roll a die (which die is determined by what class you are playing) and add your constitution modifier.
Send an email to Corsair support and ask if you can have / buy some screws. They'll probably just send you some. Worst case they can for sure tell you the length you need.
So based on the other comments, I would check the cooler and anything else that was above the CPU to see if something got too hot and dribbled solder on the CPU. Also is the socket next to that drop clean, or are there other smaller droplets nearby?
How do you control that from the couch? Wireless keyboard and mouse, or something else?
I've gotta try that first build.
Your GPU might be having problems, but the other problems you list sound like either a bad hard drive or a virus / bad windows install.
There are several utility programs you can download that will check your hard drive for failures. I would back up any important files and then run those. If the hard drive is bad, replace it. Either way you will probably want to re-install windows from scratch.
If you read the little summary, the test drive was in north Africa.
AntennaPod is great, free, and has no ads. Pretty sure it's open source too.
You can check the data the drive itself keeps about disk errors. This data is called SMART.

Figure out if the drive is having problems or not, then look at replacing it.
Another thing that slows down old laptops is thermal throttling. Once again there are plenty of programs you can download to check component temperatures. Have you cleaned dust out of the inside of the laptop and re-done the thermal paste?
