New here. pretty computer literate but no way a techie. Saw what I was supposed to run & post but a little complicated. if It is necessary, I will give it a whirl later today. not even sure what I should look for in eventviewer about chkdsk (run below)
Can you see my computer specs that i put in when I registered? dell intel core 13-213 cpu 3.40 ghz memory 6.0 gb (5.87 useable) 64 bit
computer was hanging after 5 minutes or so (firefox and outlook)
weird in that Malwarebytes web protection was turned off (not by me)? that ran for about 5 minutes and also hung.. also have win antivirus
BSOD / rebooted and PF12 and did a system test. everything was fine
restarted: tried to do a system restore but it didn't work and said to do a chkdsk
ran chkdsk r/x/f ( <= something like that) but would you believe that sometime last night the electric went out which is what they said was the WORST for chkdsk, hopefully it was finished
that seemed to have fixed things as everything is back this morning and responding (so far)
my question is: should I be worried and get a new computer? this one is is from 2012
