Before the problem began, I was attempting to download Watch_Dogs from steam but it kept failing due to an error that kept reading "Update Required". It took 10 content deletes and reboots before it finally started downloading. When I was absolutely sure that it was working, I left to have breakfast.
I came back an hour later to find that my computer had gone to sleep. Problem is that when this happens, I have to turn it of and turn it back on in order to get back to doing whatever I was doing. But that's when the problem began.
It showed the msi POST screen image and then the windows 8 logo like normal. But then a the screen went black and didn't show anything. I can't access safe mode but I can get into the bios.
I have checked every related post on this site and tried every suggestion. I don't think it can be my gpu that's causing this, but I suspect that my hard drive is responsible.
Need help fast! Can't handle game withdrawal!
EDIT:
Forgot to mention that for the last few days I've been getting a Memory Management error, not sure if it's related.
My specs are:
(P.S. I built the computer from an old 2007 T3612 eMachine from which I replaced a few choice parts)
Intel i5-4430 processor
msi B85M-P33 motherboard
GeForce GT610 2048MB DDR3 PCIE
(I kept the case, hard drive, and power supply that came with the eMachine since I was short on cash, and I also don't know what company manufactured them or their make and model.)
