Following on from Bruce's advice.
Do the following RIGHT NOW:
Back up your data, starting with the most important stuff that it would
totally ruin your life to use. Do it RIGHT NOW. Don't mind me, or the rest
of this post, or the rest of the group or what the TV is talking about.
Don't forget to save the "little things" like emails, favourates, lists of
passwords for websites.
Done that? Good.
Open event viewer (open start menu, right click my computer, manage, system
tools, event viewer - and scan for errors relating to disks. If you see any
then you probably want to think about replacing the drive.
If you're still unsure, download a disk diagnostic tool. Something like
ontrack data advisor (http://www.ontrack.com/freesoftware/) does it for me
but whatever you like will be good too, if you have other preferences.
