I'm pretty much preparing from the best computer I've ever had to become broken soon, and I've only had it a few months.
I'm gonna have to use my phone... sigh. My posting is gonna super slow down
It's not . . . quite that bleak, my friend. Of course, I don't know your situation.
It's possible that it was overheating. How long did you let it sit before rebooting? How long have you used it with it set on a soft surface? Do you have any way to clean the dust out of the vents? (They can get clogged up fast, you know.)
If it's a new computer, you should have some type of warranty.
Otherwise, take a break. Boot it up tomorrow. Run every virus/malware test you can find while you contact friends of friends to see if anyone works in IT . . .
