I recently formatted my computer because I believe numerous amounts of
viruses. Anyway, once I reinstalled, the whole computer was fine. Only it
took the computer a while to start up. I would press the power button and it
seems like it stayed in STAND UP mode for a while. The time it took to start
up the computer kept increasing and now it doesn't even start up. I'm pretty
sure it must be a software problem or maybe a fan broke or the battery
source, but the computer suffered no physical damage. Please help.
