Hi @ricks808,
Welcome to HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.
I see that you are facing an issue with your PC.
Kindly refer to the below steps to Fix Overrun of a Stack-Based Buffer Issue.
1) Scan Your Computer for Virus or Malware.
2) Run SFC And DISM Command.
Click on the Start menu and type “Command Prompt” in the search bar.
Right-click on Command Prompt from the search results and select “Run as administrator.”
Click “Yes” if prompted by UAC.
In the Command Prompt window, type “sfc /scannow” and press Enter.
Wait for the scanning process to complete.
If the tool detects any corrupted or missing system files, it will attempt to repair them automatically.
Once the scan and repair process is complete, close the Command Prompt window.
Click on the Start menu and type “Command Prompt” in the search bar.
Right-click on “Command Prompt” in the search results and select “Run as administrator” from the context menu.
If prompted by User Account Control (UAC), click “Yes” to allow the Command Prompt to make changes to your device.
In the Command Prompt window, type the following command and press Enter: DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth
Wait for the DISM scan to complete. This may take some time, depending on the size and complexity of your system files.
If DISM detects any issues, you can try to repair them using the following command: DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
Wait for the DISM repair process to complete. This may take some time, depending on the size and complexity of your system files.
Once the repair process is complete, close the Command Prompt window.
