So I turn on my laptop and within 5 minutes the fans turn on high and the thing is smoking hot.
When I tried to use alt + cntrl + del to see if anything was running and using up the processor and ram to make it do that, the task manager won't come up.
I have tried to scanning with Ad-aware, norton, another virus scan, and just about all i can think about.
I have searched everywhere to see if I could fix it, or download the task manager, or install it off the windows cd, but nothing will work.
Does anyone have any idea what has happened and how I can fix it?

Try hitting control alt delete. You may have gotten confused and done the steps out of order.
