Hi guys!

Thanks,

Peter

Could be a hard-drive, please run a BIOS self test and check the health of a drive, alternatively download a tool called Crystal DiskInfo, this will do the hard work for you, if the status is Caution or Bad, you will need to upgrade your HDD. Personally I would put in an SSD (any Samsung SSD will do)
