My PC: gateway gt5408
gt5408 specs
Some background: this pc has served me well as a hand me down from my family in 2010. It had to get wiped because of viruses but when the electronics store restored the PC they neglected to tell us that it had to get activated and that CD was long gone. I have been running on not-official windows since.
Yesterday afternoon I forgot to wait for it to fully shutdown and unplugged it so I could vacuum but later on when I turned it on it worked fine.
Fast forward to this evening. I get the following message when I turned it on:

I unplugged everything and wiped off the dust from the fan and used sanitizer wipe on the bottom of the tower. Still the same message.
Wiping the PC again is NOT an option because I'm still in the process of getting my entire family photo library printed. A couple hundred per paycheck.
You probably already realized, I am a total noob. Any and all help is GREATLY appreciated.
Thank you.
