To each their own. They've always worked in my experience. My Mum has one that's been ticking for at least 4-6 years through multiple virus attacks, and my Mum. She can't wear a watch because they just up and die, so this computer is pretty tough. And it's still running as smooth as the new ones.

 

My Dad had one too, it only died when he was in a crash and it hit him in the back. Now it's bent. And it had Beats audio.....

update: seems to be working fine now, but I still don't know

Run crystaldiskinfo and memtest86.

 

Crystaldiskinfo will tell you if there is anything amiss with the HDD, and memtest86 will test your ram. Both of these CAN fail early, and both could be causing these issues.

crystaldiskinfo: Health good, everything else seems okay, temperature 38CM so im gonna try memtest86
