A few days ago I started noticing an increase in the temperature of my Laptop and a decrease in the gaming performance. I didn’t think much of it since My laptop is already 4 years old but then, I received a notification on the Avast antivirus that I had som JS Miner Malware. I ran the antivirus but could not find anything.
I am attaching the logs of my computer to see if I can get some help with my laptop =)
Next time the detection pop up I’ll take a screen shoot. Not completely sure it was a website I visited, nevertheless, the reduced game performance and the increased temperature are the only lead I’ve got =(.
I also realised that the temperature only increases dramatically whenever I open Chrome.
I noticed that whenever I have Chrome open and I’m connected to the internet, the computer starts some intensive work and it heats a lot. If I disconnect the internet, the temperature just returns to standard (50-55 C)
Also, for some reason, te Nvidia Card is not detected on the laptop anymore ( is it possible that it has been “kidnapped” by some malware?)
