So for context: Today my laptop suddenly restarted out of the blue. I downloaded the HP hardware diagnostic tool to see if it could find something wrong with my PC, but whenever I tried to do the short drive self-test, it would cancel itself with the following error: "The test is taking too long to complete and will be cancelled now. A request to interupt the test was received. Result of the test is inconclusive." Whenever I tried to do the long drive self-test, it would stay stuck at 10%, and I'd be forced to cancel the test.
Now, I decided to try the Performance Tune-up Check. It went fine for a while, but then for the past hour or so, it's been stuck on "Checking system files" at 58%. It said that it can't be cancelled before I started the test, so I don't know what I should do. Should I restart my PC, or will it damage anything? And if I safely can, is there any advice I could have on what to do with my mysteriously restarting computer and/or cancelling drive tests??
(Forgive me for this mess of a post, I've been up all night trying to fix my computer and I'm on the verge of a panic attack, haha...)
