Hello guys... Eh, here it is each time colder, and i don't use to have the heater on all night...
Today, for example, it took me like 5-10 minutes to open the computer... Than, i needed to restart, and it doesn't seem like turning off, so i needed to force...

After, like 20 minutes working, the PC work normally and really fast. Look like Processor or HDD doesn't like the cold. :P
Also xFire took ages to load games, and it usually take like 10 seconds....

I feel like a newbie... I don't know, maybe it's because i use AMD, and Intel is better, but...

PC Specs:
Model: Acer Aspire 5552
Screen: 15.6" HD LED LCD
Graphics: AMD Radeon HD 64770M
Processor: AMD Athlon™ IIP360 Dual-Core Processor, 2.30 GHz.
HDD: 640GB
Memory: 4GB DDR3
DVD: DVD-Super Multi DL drive.

Thank you.

Age of the computer, and when was the last time you ran a hard drive diagnostics?

I have one of them ummm its a laptop so im guessing its over heating you could try putting a book or something under the back of it so the fans can get more air try run a defrag thing too if you have had it for ages like my desktop just re install i re install my computers once a year

What running system ?

It is a Laptop, 1 month old... It's new, and also i said it only work good after get a bit hot. When it is cold, it tend to take ages to open. Now, for example, is fast like hell... But on morning.. It never go too hot...

my mate talked about something like that he leaves his laptop on the heater before he puts it in his bag and takes it too school :P

Yeah... Strange. By the way, it's like the cars... They tend to develop more when hot.
