When this happens try to hear if the disk is making any clicking or spinning sounds, if so there may be an issue with the disk itself or the interface.
If you are capable of opening up the HDD bay, try disconnecting the HDD and reconnecting it.
If none of that pans out have a look at the Event Viewer (look for critical events) there may be some info there.

i just observed it and there is no hdd sounds....

but the cpu fan is spinning ata a very high speed....

& iwill check for the event manager....

is there any other problems regarding this....

there are no critical events in the event viewer....

If the cpu fan is spinning at high speed there is probably a process causing it to do so.
Possibly update installation, an antivirus software or something like that.
You could see that in the task manager.
