Hey all.
So my PC has been fine but yesterday evening started acting strange. First firefox would hang and then the whole PC would become unresponsive for a min or 2 then would just start working again. This happened about 5 times so I closed FF down. I then started Skyrim
but when it finally loaded and exited an area out into Skyrim it took about 5 full mins to load compared to about 10 seconds so I knew something was wrong.
I decided to run a full PC scan with AVG while I made some food. When I went back it was on a black screen saying I think 'Readwrite error' or something similar and to press ctrl+alt+delete to restart. When I did I then got this message:
Had a quick look on the net and doesn't seem to be a clear reason as to what's at fault. Could it be my hard drive? Some are saying it's memory..
Anyone have any thoughts? I'd hate to have to reload win 7 and lose my Skyrim save
