Let's check the hard drive for issues:
Click the Start menu , in the search box type "cmd" (without the quotes)
Next you will see a menu that has a small black DOS icon with the text cmd next to it.
Double click on the DOS icon to run, OR
Right click on the DOS icon and select "Run as Administrator".
Select Yes if presented with the UAC prompt.

Type or copy and paste (if it will allow)chkdsk /r, then hit Enter (make sure there is space between chkdsk and the /r)
You will see a warning:
Chkdsk cannot run because the volume is in use by another process. Would you like to schedule this volume to be checked the next time the system restarts?(Y/N)
Press the Y key, then hit Enter
You will see the following:

Close the window, or type Exit, then press Enter.
Now restart your computer to allow the chkdsk scan to be performed.
