My PC, which I got in early 2012, worked fine for months until one day, when I booted it up, it went to Automatic Repair. I couldn't do anything with it besides wipe the HDs (one SSD, another regular). I installed Windows 8 on the HDD this time, thinking that maybe the SSD was messed up.
A few days later, the same thing happened again (I believe when I tried to download .NET for a video game). This time I installed Windows 8 to the SSD.
Now, a month or so later, my computer was frozen when I started it up. I can wipe my entire system AGAIN, but does this sound like some other problem? It seems pretty unlikely that I got two duds for HDs. Or maybe it's not a HD problem at all since I did get Windows to work again on each HD once? Thanks for any help.
I should also note that the one thing that seems weird about my computer is that it is really loud. Nothing is rattling though which is why I haven't done anything about that yet.
