My laptop just went into a critical mode with all kind of messages popping up including a audio message. Who would I take my laptop to to get it looked at?

Mine did that when I got a nasty virus. I took it to Geekz, have always been pleased with their service

I second Geekz.

Do not phone the number, they want you to install an "exe" file and that WILL destroy your computer. I fixed mine by just shutting it down completely and leaving it for a while. When I started it up again, everything was fine. Obviously, if you are still having problems, please do take it to specialists like Geekz.

Both Geekz and Brandon Computers are the way to go (Don''t go to Staples or Best Buy), but I believe Brandon Computers has the better in-store rates, about 70$. Plus the guys working there have been around ever since the CompuSmart days(remember them?), so you are guaranteed to get a fix the first time.  
 
If you would like I know I can personally help you out too, you can PM me if you would like! Just from your brief des:cription its a really easy fix!

I did do the unthinkable and called the number. However when they wanted access to my computer I hung up. So right now my laptop is shut off. I will take it to one of the above mentioned places and let them take a look at it.
