Hello, I'm nearly 100% sure this is a hardware related problem, i'm just not sure if its the ram or the hard drive.
Symptoms:
The laptop (toshiba satellite l655) takes a long time at the loading screen. When I get to the desktop everything runs at a crawl. I tried opening only the task manager and it took over 2 minutes before it appeared. Chrome failed to open with a "Referenced Memory and I/O error status" error. Also, when I try chkdsk /r it always freezes at the same point which is phase 4/5 at the 10% mark. Explorer constantly crashes.
Should I just do hard drive and memory test then?
I've already backed up all the data.
thanks.
