Also, I forgot to mention that the hard drive works fine. The computer gets slow, but it's fine. The battery's completely dead, and the fan needs repairing (or maybe I just need a cooling pad. What is it with Toshiba laptops and heat issues?), and perhaps the RAM needs an upgrade, but it's fine.
Laptops are notorious for not cooling effectively. Most draw in air from the bottom (stupid). I always prop up the rear of mine so there's an air gap...it's basically what a "cooling pad" is doing for you.
