    HELP! .exe, .torrent, and other files are not working!
    I noticed this when my laptop hibernates on its own, shut down on its own, and when I play a game, it crashes and restart the laptop! PLEASE HELP!

    I tried using Advance System Care and scan.
    I tried using TuneUp Utilities 2009 and ran a complete maintenance check, registry fix, etc.
    I tried doing a deep system scan using Bitdefender Total Security 2010.

    But in the end, it was hopeless.
    .
    I'm using a Dell Inspiron 1545 with the OEM OS Windows Vista Home Basic 32-bit.
    I was planning to upgrade my Home Basic 32bit to Ultimate 32bit but it ended up saying
    "**********.*** is not a valid win32 application" *sigh* I don't know what to do.
