I was playing Dark Souls and after I entered a boss area, the background music began stutter-looping and eventually the whole thing froze, leading to bsod
When it first rebooted, it asked to insert a boot device or select one after rebooting, which is what I did.
Now everytime I boot, the spinning circles loading screen just sits thre for 10 mins, then it says it is checking and repairing D drive. This takes around 30 minutes. Then it goes away, and after 5 mins or so the login screen comes up.
The whole thing is super slow. I start typing the password and it takes around 10 seconds for the characters to show up. Then it's stuck on "Welcome" for a long ass time. When the desktop shows up, only default windows icons (folder, txt file, recyc bin etc) are loaded, everything else is the notloaded white square. I can move the cursor with no delay but cant interact with anything.
This is leading me to think something is hogging the cpu and slowing everything to a literal crawl. I notice the laptop's hdd access light is always lit from startup regardless of any input I try (or not).
Ive researched a bit and there's sayings abouy touchpad drivers causing these issues (I noticed my touchpad's scroll function was one day randomly inverted, but I didnt pay it mind since I use a mouse), and would have removed the driver if I could even get the device manager open (maybe it will eventually, but im just sitting here and nothing's happening). I have also not installed anything but the game in the last month, and have had no problems or crashes since I installed the OS
Any help would be highly appreciated
