Hey everyone!
So a couple of days ago my PC booted as usual and I did some work on it for an hour or so before I opened League of Legends for the first time since the recent update. Immediately as I did, I also tried to message a friend and Skype was noticeably slow (typing lagged) and then crashed. I thought nothing of it, restarted Skype and proceeded to play a few games of lol with a Skype call. The game was quite stuttery at times, but that has been reported by many people to bedown to the resent patch. Afterwards my PC was very slow, so I decided to restart it. However, when I did the PC failed to boot- hung on 'windows starting' splash. Another restart, and it did boot, however, the HDD light was on constantly but audiably I could hear that the HDD wasn't being very active- the PC was still very slow, programs crashed and AVG asked to renter the validation code for it. Any idea if this is down to my HDD failing, or is it down to a software error? It's a 11 month old WD Blue 1TB.
Thanks in advance and sorry if this was quite long; any input is appreciated!
