so common reason of over heating is dust and the derailed of cpu fan. you can use laptop on a plane surface to see if it heating due to no air passing to cpu by keep using on your lap

That sounds like you have a bad connection in that vacinity.
Removing the case and resetting the contacts may fix it but it could be a crack on the motherboard.
Good luck.

It sounds like your Windows operating system itself has an issue with it's start up files, like a virus, malware, adware , trojan ect.
There are a couple of avenues of attack that are available.
Some AV software will only do limited if any scans due to limitations set if you are in safe-mode so I suggest you use an E.R.D. (Emergency Rescue Disk) made from your Av software. If you dont have one made then you may TRY-IT in safe-mode, but if unsuccessful , go here and download this one,extract it and burn it to disk.

Be sure your system is set to boot from a CD and boot the system with that disk in the drive.
If this doesn't help you you may want to consider a "REPAIR' install of the windows system files.
A repair install replaces only the operating system files while saving all of your data
Here is a site that walks you through it. Please read EVERYTHING in it, especially the WARNINGS.

If you feel the AV E.R.Disk wasn't thorough and your hesitant about the repair install of the operating system files and want to do a foolproof infection scan to rule that out, then there are also adapters you can get so you can mount your laptop hard drive as a slave drive in a Desktop PC or another one a little more money that mounts through the USB port.
That way you can run your multiple scans there.

or

These adapters are also great for retrieving all of your data to save before doing a repair install or a complete windows replacement.
You have already checked a couple of the most common causes of your problem like heat & ram and this about all I can suggest so I leave you with a good luck and when or if your problem is solved let us know so your suggestions may help others.

You may find that the LCD itself has been ruptured or fractured, producing this anomaly. This is known as LCD "bleed". Consult pictures using this term and an image search engine to confirm that this is the type of damage.
If the strip doesn't look like "bleed", it may also be a failing inverter, producing a distorted image because it is sending bad data to the video port and motherboard video processing circuits.
Test your video processing by connecting the computer to an external monitor using the VGA/DVI/HDMI out on the side of the notebook.
Using a search engine with any of those terms in bold will produce results to assist you as necessary.

During the boot up process you will see on the screen press a certain key to enter set up

Press either delete or f2 during the boot up process to enter BIOS scroll down to set user password or supervisor password you can change or remove your password from there

hope this helps
