Check your Processor:
The processor of your computer is sometimes referred to as the “CPU.” It is the device inside your terminal that performs computer programs. When your processor flunks, you face major computer problems. However, the processors of your computer do not fail straight-out; there might be some other issues that disrupt its performance. If you think that there is some problem in the processor of your computer, try to do some troubleshooting yourself before you spend money on an expensive technician.
Step 1
Swap the processor. Take out the processor that you think is problematic and fit a spare one. Still, if it doesn’t work, you have other issues.
If your machine functions well with the good processor, pull it out and install the original one back. If it doesn’t work, it means you have to replace the processor.

Step 2
Turn on your computer. If it doesn’t boot up, check the processor fan and ensure if it works. Always remember, if a processor fan doesn’t work, then it can overheat the processor.
Step 3
Switch on your computer and allow it to run for a while. Now, switch off and open the case. You are required to follow the instructions of the manufacturer, use an anti-static wristband to cover yourself.
These kinds of wristbands are easily available at electronics retailers. Now, diligently touch the processor. If you find it too hot to touch for over a few seconds, it means your processor is overheating.

Step 4
Try to run or install an application. If you are not able to run or install, update the drivers of your computer. You can also contact your computer manufacturers to download the current driver.
Step 5
Swap the motherboard, if you are comfy doing it. Try to swap it with a spare one or buy a new motherboard. The motherboard that you are using presently might be incompatible with the processor.
Thanks!!
