This is the third day in a row it wouldn't turn on when I asked it to. It would get stuck at starting windows, and I'd have to turn it off and do startup repair and stuff. It seems that if I do startup repair, system restore, and memory diagnostics, it will turn on, but that takes a really long time, and since I'm homeschooled I have to do schoolwork on this
I don't want to have to put it down, I've had it for three years and my family is in some rough time financially. I'll be sure to take everything I've upgraded out. Why would GabeN allow something like this to happen? I've spent a lot of money on steam games, why would this happen to me?
The next time it turns on, I will be sure to do the responsible thing, not play games, not do schoolwork, but to put all of the pictures on an sd card. Pray for me. |

Inter, I didnt, and I capitalized what should've been capitalized because it's a title.
@sun that's what I'm doing the next time it turns on, most of the terabyte is just computer games I can re download through steam, so that's a plus. |

| It won't turn on if you ask it too. You need to press the button. |

| You should just clear out your computer of all files, and backup those of importance. Other stuff, such as Steam, and games, can be reinstalled. |

| I do plan on that, Pyro, but I must get all of the important stuff off it. Such as pictures. |

| We do actually have 3 computers, the important stuff is just on mine because we didn't always have the other two. Heck, we have 5 computers if you count our broken laptops. |

Clicking noise? Sounds like constant reading/writing from games and such have killed your hard drive, and being a 'clicking noise', probably mechanically/physically. If it was logically, it might have been save-able.. but no.
Slow loading times?
Definitely a hard drive problem. |
