Hi, This Madhav4 

 

I wanted to make sure that whether there id any page file in you Hard Drive or Not?

You can check it by clicking Right clicking on the Start Button then Task Manager then Disk then carefully observe the option for Page File and check whether it is YES or No.

Hi,

What is the exact model number of your notebook? Here is how to find it:

Model number

The error means you will need to replace the Hard Drive (maybe upgrade to an SSD) and then reinstall the OS.

You should backup all your important data on an external drive. It is normal for the computer to be slow and lagging when the Hard Drive is failing. If you provide the exact model number, I can provide you with a small guide on how to perform the fix.

 

Let me know,

David

STEP 1: Open Command Prompt

STEP 2: Type chkdsk /f C:

STEP 3: Share the result with me
