Hi:

Below is the link to the product specs page for your PC.

Under the hard drive section, it appears that there is a 16 GB mSATA Disk Caching solid state drive.

That is the component that has failed.

What that does is accelerate the hard drive for better performance.

That part costs around $25 to replace not counting labor.

Since I am not a PC repair tech by trade or training, I would not be able to help you with the other issues it has.

Could all be related to that failed component.

Thanks for the help im going to order the part and have someone put it on.
