my laptop was on client 5. something - taking a long time to patch.
I am sure I lost everything on me as I had hordes around me.

maybe you just need a new hard drive.

mine does this every once in a while, toss in a boot disk and run chdisk (repair) Fixes mine every time.

 

[Vortex]

chkdsk /r

or Windows Recovery Console

fixboot command

Yeah, you need a new HD at the most, dont worry about a whole new PC. But run chkdsk first, as stated above by 2, then see where you sit
