My computer freezes after startup

[mcogg835]

I have an older laptop from maybe 2009 or so. It worked fine until one day when i logged on, it froze about 30 seconds after startup, it allows me to click most anything on the window had open at the time it freezes but its very limited and i cant pull anything up, the loading icon shows up when i scroll over the toolbar. i rebooted, ive tried going in safe mode but it does the same thing, ive tried using the repair your computer thing on the boot options. Im out of things to try. Does anyone know what might be wrong with it?

Best thing to do is replace the hard drive and do a clean Windows setup on that. Very likely your drive is going bad.
