Hmm, could be that you have 4 storage devices installed into your computer, most unlikely though. Can you give some more specific details? Maybe some pictures? Also if your machine is custom built, and if you still have the manuals use them. You can even open your computer to see if any damage was done. Also have you tried to launch your computer in safe mode?

And after you fix your problem, install any updates (not windows 10 though) and update your software and drivers, and definitely get a anti-virus program, windows defender is not enough. Oh and make sure you DO NOT place computer hardware on carpets or anything that induces static. USE a table or anti-static mat and or wrist band. AND NEVER TOUCH THE INSIDE OF THE CASE WHILE THE COMPUTER IS ON!

Sorry for the wait, have you tried clicking either of the buttons, try checking for the solution after you try pressing cancel. See if that helps.
