So recently I've run into a problem while just simply browsing the internet and I'll open a new tab and I notice its taking a long time to load. So I'll try to see if its my internet that's going out and I click the internet on the taskbar and nothing pops up. Then I try and minimize my window but it stops responding. So I try and click the start button and it wont pop up and basically everything is becoming unresponsive one-by-one.
Then lastly I'll try to hit CTRL-ALT-Delete and nothing happens so I right click the taskbar to bring up the Task Manager that way and then the whole taskbar becomes unresponsive. So I shut off my PC.
Oh and keep in mind in all this I can move my cursor so its not a full freeze.
Well recently when I would try CTRL-ALT-Delete after a bit it would turn my screen black then pop up a message saying:
"Failure to display security and shut down options
The logon process was unable to display security and logon options when CTRL+ALT+DELETE was pressed. If the operating system does not respond, press ESC or restart the computer by using the power switch."
Well I believe after I hit OK I would restart and I don't run into the problem for a few hours...Now it's starting to happen more and more frequently and I started noticing this only a few days ago. Before that I had no problems. The only thing I can think of is that its a problem with my SSD or something because just a few months ago in April I installed a Samsung 840 EVO 120GB SSD and I migrated windows from an HDD to an SSD and I fear that maybe I'm just now receiving problems from that, or maybe my SSD is running out of room or something is corrupted and messing up windows.
I don't know what to do. Please help I payed $1200 for this pc in January of 2014 and I can't have it mess up now!
