Indeed! I'm miserable about computer tech; but this sounds like disk failure which my old tower WIN7 machine has been warning me about for a couple of months. It routinely informs 'death is imminent' ... usually in the middle of a Lords of the Realm battle!  An overnight stay at the local fixit shop confirmed my hardrive is at stage four decrepitude after ten+ years. They were amazed I was still operational! They proceeded to put all my good pics on a flash drive to load into whatever my new machine will be.(attn Mapuc-do that now! and find a good pro-nerd fixit shop!  )
Meanwhile, this Samsung tablet I'm blogging on, that my bride bestowed on me, gets the job done!
