So, my computer f*cked up out of nowhere. I'm running Windows 10. Walked into the room to find a blue screen had popped up, saying that it was collecting data to restart because the OS crashed or quit working. When it re-booted, the HDD wouldn't boot at all. Ran all of the diagnostics that I could and it sounds like the OS was trying to update itself and errored out somehow, then committed suicide. Luckily, I have some live Linux distros so that I can at least get online. Here is what was diagnosed:

Quote:
SMART Check: Passed

Short DST: Passed

Long DST: Failed

Failure ID: U0C05T-00098V-WPQF0K-61BG03 [Note: Zeros may be O's?]

Product ID: D2S42US#ABA

Error Code: 0x000000f

ErrorCode: 0xc00000e9

A required device isn't connected or can't be accessed.

The operating system couldn't be loaded because the system registry file is missing or contains errors.

File:\Windows\system32\config\system
I am dreading having to wipe and re-install. But that may be a best case scenario. May need a new HDD. Any ideas?

>that feel when my wife's macbook of 10 years finally died out, and I bought a refurbished replacement on ebay on a whim without scrutinizing the specs too closely because it was so cheap at ~$500, and now come to find out we purchased Core 2 Duo... :/ ......I mean, it has 8GB of new RAM and a new 1 TB SSD hybrid drive in a CLEAN 15" model with DVD drive. I think it will probably be plenty fast for the wife though, since she mostly just browses social media and e-mail.

i just upgraded from a AMD6 processor with only 3gb of ram to a Intel i5 with SSD and 8 gbs or ram.

its still cool to me how fast these SSD's go from "off" to "ready to go on internet" all in seconds rather than minutes
