So yesterday i was playing a game called apb:r and it would freeze up every 15-20 minutes sometimes even lock up the whole computer and i would have to restart it. This was just after a patch so i figured it was a problem with the game, so i looked on the forum but i didn't see any new posts about crashing problems. So i decided to re-install the game to see if that would help. While downloading the game with steam my computer locked up and the cpu fan was maxing out. So i thought i might have a virus or a problem with windows, i didn't have much installed so i figured i would just do a factory reset. it went smooth but an acer has this add on install thing before you can use the computer and during that i got a blue screen. restarted it and it didn't come back. Now it seems everything is super slow, things like control panel will say Failed to load/open, and if i try to download and install something the computer freezes and sometimes it won't even shut off. I was lucky able to create a factory disc at the last minute made 4 cd's and it seemed to work fine. Tho at the last disc when i went to use the pc it wouldn't show an image and the cpu fan was higher than idle, the disc drive was open so i know it finished and haven't touched the computer since.
Also what would be a good replacement for it, it was a WD Green 1tb and the pc is only about 2 years old, so something can't be right.
I was thinking about the WD black 500gb(WD5003AZEX) would that be an ok upgrade?
