    Windows 10 My hard drive is failing!

    So it's a little more complicated than just a hard drive failure. To be honest I'm not that sure if it is failing to begin with. I am totally clueless when it comes to the inner workings of a computer (like toddler level clueless). My computer is making a clicking noise. However, it's a mouse...

    This is more than trying my patience. I had Chinese relatives visit a couple of years ago and installed the Chinese language pack so they could use the computer. Before they left they turned it back to English as I could not read anything on the computer (Sony Viao Win 8.1). Now, I've...
