okay so this is a first for me...i'm using the laptop like usual, d/lin off of IRC and other random stuff...all of a sudden it locks up....it locks up for bout 20 sec, then goes back to normal for bout 5 sec, then locks up again for another 20 sec...this goes on forever until i shutdown and restart....the first time it happened after about 10 cycles of locking up and unlocking, it eventually just blue screened me and restarted itself....the 2nd time it happened i had to shutdown manually and it took forever, it locked up during WINDOWS IS SAVING SETTINGS.....then WINDOWS IS SHUTTING DOWN...after it would lock up i would hear like a clicking noise, hard drive maybe?? i have no clue whats going on here...any suggestions?? It's only happened twice so far, so i dunno if this is worth going thru tech support just yet...what do u guys think?? This lappie is only about a month old too!!
