Tonnes of Hardware Problems

I have experienced quite a lot of problems with this laptop, first of all the power cable had broke the first time that I had used it, the part where you plug it onto the transformer had just cracked and pushed in sideways so I am unsure on wither it is safe to stay on for any length of time, but the main problems are I think that I may have a dead battery, and not only that but laptop gets up to ridiculous temperatures and I have to turn it off every 20 minutes hoping that it does not overheat and kill the processor. I have noticed that after a short period of usage what I am presuming to be the fan makes a ridiculous vibrating noise pulsing on and off, it sounds as if there is either something not working, getting stuck or something along those lines. I am not too happy with the laptop at the moment, performance wise it been not too bad, but would have expected the hardware to have lasted a lot longer than it currently has. The laptop has been sitting on my desk near enough since when i got back from holiday, so there is no way it could have been damaged otherwise.
