Tonight I got about 30 pop up messages with a heading of "system message-write fault error"
Then I got "hard disc failure detected" and it shut down.

Anybody got some help?
If your system shut down, then it's likely the hard drive crapping out, and not bogus error messages from malware. Hope you got a backup.

That said, you should still be running virus and trojan protection, and I second the motion for malwarebytes, after you get your data backed up and/or replace the hard drive.
