I can enter my BIOS menu no problem and everything seems to be fine in there, there are no obvious warning signs, fans are working, CPU temperature is consistent etc. I turn on the computer and the Asus loading screen appears. Here's what's happening, as best I can describe it.
The computer has suddenly started taking a lot longer to boot up windows too, it went from maybe 40-45 seconds to close to two minutes on a couple of occasions in the past couple of days. I know I should have taken note of the particular warning but, beyond reading it and failing to derive and significant meaning out of it I just hit okay the few times it appeared and everything worked. Over the passed couple of days I had been receiving an occasional red screen warning about unauthorized changes I believe, but the computer still started. I built the computer myself 4 years ago and it has been running fine in general however, there have been times where it failed to initiate a boot when I pressed the main power button and I'd be forced to press the reset button to begin the boot sequence. Hi, I've had a really frustrating day trying to get my computer back up and running but I have very little technical knowledge to help me.
