Greetings @MaKettel 

 

Welcome to the HP Forum.

 

I don't believe you will need a new PC. But you might have to replace the system drive.

 

The system drive may be failing or the PC has developed Windows system file corruption.

 

Check your PC's hardware using HP Diagnostics as follows:

Start the PC. Repeatedly tap the "ESC" key.

Select "F2". Run extensive system and component tests to confirm: a drive problem, a memory problem, or other component problem.

 

Let the Forum know if diagnostic tests pass or fail.

 

Windows is corrupted if all hardware tests pass.

 

Regards
