Vostro 3468 hanging on slightest activity
Hi All,
I have a vostro dell 3648,
i7 - 7th gen
8 GB Ram
500 HDD in my caddy of CDROM
128 GB adata SSD as main boot drive
I just installed a fresh windows 10 and when ever I do slightly heavy work, fans starts to run at full throttle and system just hangs; can't do anything expect for the power button shutdown.
By slightest I mean opening a youtube video etc.
what could be the issue here? how can I diagnose it? Kindly guide.
Regards

That sounds like a heat problem. Try cleaning the vents and pull the bottom cover, carefully, and gently clean out the fan and other components.

@JanGli Have you tried running diagnostics (F12 immediately at boot) as there may be problems with the fan and that would certainly cause heat issues.
