My laptop freezes when boots puts me in bitlocker and still freezes, takes half an hour to get 1 good boot then freezes whenever not plugged in please help
 
What is the make/model of the laptop? Have you dropped it, or damaged in any way?

What, if anything, did you change or install just prior to this happening?

Can you access the BIOS? If so, does it have any options for on-board diagnostics?

Do you know how full your primary storage device is?
