Welcome Harry...
For a bit more info on the machine involved DLoad; install and run Everest Home from here...
Run a log; save it as a .txt file  and post the Computer Summary portion here and we'll take a look...
In the meantime let us know any new hardware or software installed recently ?
Any power problems ?
List your protection programs you currently have installed as well...

Open it, click Computer, then Summary.
In upper menu, go Report>Quick Report-Summary
Save it in text file, and paste it in your next post.
Don't include anything under line Debug - PCI

You downloaded wrong thing. Go back to my reply #6, and take a good look at what to click to download Everest.
