I was out of town working this past week and had my laptop with me, since I use it some configuring network switches. Well, while I was doing some other stuff, I decided to play some of my windows media tunes. I set my laptop down with it plugged in and had the volume at about 90%, also, with the windows media visual effect set at full screen. After about maybe an hour, the music stopped so I checked on it. My laptop seemed to be completely locked up. My desktop was the only thing visible. My task bar was gone. I couldn't turn it off either or reset it. I tried just about everything to reset it or turn it off, but with no luck. I finally had to unscrew my battery and restart it.
Next, bothered by having it lock up so harshly, I decided to see if it would do it again, or maybe figure out the cause. I set it up to do the same thing as before, except with the visual effects not maximized. Same thing happened after 30 minutes or so.
The next day, I did the same thing with it except no visaul effects, and it still locked up.
Also, after it locks up, and after hitting a few keys and trying to close the media player, it gives an error message saying something about an .alg file in /system/. I think. This problem is bothering me. Please, if anyone can help me, please do so.
Should I call Sager?
