Hello, my friend recently gave me his computer, and i reset it so I can clear any problems with it. When he gave it to me, he said that he remembers it being very slow, especially when/if it overheats (see later below).
I recently had someone I know check the inside of the computer, and she said that it looks fine inside with no real reason for overheating. This may not be an overheating issue, thats just what my friend thought it was, but im pretty sure it is a firmware problem.
He says he may or may not have messed with the bios, and I am not familiar with that kinda stuff.
Some examples of how I know the computer is slow is that csgo on all settings on low and 4:3 800x600 ranges from around 40-70 fps, and I cant run dolphin emulator above 30 fps (this is my first time trying to run it tho)
Can i please get some advice on how I could diagnose and fix this problem?!?
