Take this opportunity to make a complete backup of your system. Get an external drive that has more free space than your system drive, plug it in, and do a full backup using Windows Backup and Restore.

My wife had a laptop that died a month after the warranty expired. Took it out to the range. The first shot got the battery, which started burning. After that, each shot blew it into more and more flaming chunks. It was very cathartic. |
