@Pearl777, Welcome to HP Support Community,

Thank you for posting your query; I’m here to help by guiding you through steps to resolve this issue

Check for Overheating: A temperature of 82°C is too high. Clean out any dust from the fans and vents to improve airflow, and make sure your desktop has proper cooling.

Check Hard Drive Health: Run CHKDSK in Command Prompt to check for bad sectors or issues with the drive. Run CHKDSK by typing chkdsk /f /r in Command Prompt and restarting.

Back Up Data and Replace Drive: If the drive is noisy (clicking sounds), it may be failing. Back up your important files and consider replacing the hard drive or upgrading to an SSD.

I hope these steps help resolve the issue
