Computer freezes after startup

vignas96 · Nov 10, 2014

So it has been a three days i think when this is happening. After I turn on my computer and get to desktop it freezes completely and all i can do is force turn off it and then wait a minute or two (if i try to turn it on immediately it just shows a black screen and nothing more). So i have to restart a couple times and it is working just fine then. It does occur in Safe mode aswell. CPU temperature is quite normal (46-60 Celsius)
I have tried to run the AVG, CCleaner and disable all unnecessary startup programs and it hadn't solve anything.

AMD Phenom X4 II 945
4GB RAM
Nvidia Geforce 450 GTS

Hope someone will be able to help me and sorry for my bad english.

No need to be sorry for your English!Anyways, before those 3 days, was the PC working just fine?

It sounds like you hard drive is failing. Can you run the disk checking program built into windows on it? Right click the drive and select properties. Then go to tools and run error checking. Make sure to check both boxes and then restart. Upon restart the drive will scan from the dos prompt and will let you know after it's done if there were errors. If there was and they couldn't be repaired you may have to replace the drive.

That sounds like very possible thing cause it has been making these weird sounds for years. I will try this.

So if you have hear strange sounds coming from your hard drive, it's very probable that it's dying and need to be replace asap.

Winly :

Yeah that somehow indicates that something is wrong with it, but the noise is there for ages now and computer was working perfectly fine with that noise. However i am running that error checking, so will see.

So I did run that and it showed that unspecified error has occured. Then some numbers showed up and system restarted.
Is it bad?

vignas96 :

Sounds bad. As stated before, seems like your HDD is dying. Make a backup of important files and replace the hard drive with a new one. Or make an image of the whole system, replace the drive and take that image to get the system back without installing windows and everything again.

Post back when you get a new hard drive to see how are you doing.
