I installed a new Gigabyte R9 380 GPU today and all went well, games were working much better and all the drivers installed fine. Then while I was on my computer an error came up
(https://gyazo.com/29cf00514af9983869d0bce6ff8514ec)
I have a 500GB and 1000GD drive in my computer, I believe this message is referring to the terabyte because it the instructions it gave me said it was my X drive, and the terabyte is indeed labelled X. I also recently installed a 500w PSU, no problems at all, so I can support the card.
I checked all of the connectors inside my PC, everything is well plugged into the motherboard and drives.
Help would be great, I'm not sure whether I should be worried or not.
 
Solution
Try using Crystal Disk Info to check the smart info of the drives and see what it shows. That windows message looks a little funny to me and I suspect might actually be a virus rather than a legitimate Windows error message. I could be wrong, but seems odd.

The window may look odd because I'm on Windows ten, it seems pretty legitimate, I'll look into it though, thanks.
