In June my dad bought me a beautiful new computer. He got all the parts and assembled it himself (he knows computers very well) but all the sudden, I don't know maybe a month after, all the sudden I noticed my computer would slow down, and I mean it was so slow doing anything was impossible. It lasted only a few minutes the first time. This was a recurring problem, and gradually the time got longer, soon spiking like this for HOURS. In this time, the computer is unbearably slow. If I turn it off while in one of these spikes, I get a black screen with the words "a disk read error has occurred. Press ctrl+alt+del to restart" you can press control alt delete as many times as you please, but this message keeps coming up. Eventually when I come back to it after maybe an hour it starts up normally only to spike at some time later. It seems random and not at any specific time, but it's frequent. The only things using more than 0.1 mb/s is system sometimes and Norton, but I tried uninstalling Norton and this was still happening so that's not the cause.
I finally reinstalled the operating system. This solved the problem... For about a month. Then it started again. So I reinstalled the os again thinking it would work the same, but the next day it was still doing it. PLEASE HELP!
