Hey guys...
I have a Dell G3 3579 laptop with Intel core i5 8th gen, Nvidia GTX 1050 and a 1TB HDD with 8GB Optane...
My laptop froze while I was modelling on it, and I had to force shut down by holding down the power button for a few seconds. I switched it on again, and Automatic Repair had kicked in. Waited for almost 4 to 5 hours where it was on the same screen. Restarted again by force, and disk check had kicked in, showing me 999 hours to complete... Somehow, I got the laptop to start again, and boot. After logging in, the Task manager shows my HDD as an SSD, System takes up 100 % disk usage on power, and it goes down to 1 or 2% as I remove the power cord, and as it runs on battery. I plug it in again, and System disk usage goes back up to 100%... All windows updates were completed and I had the latest windows installed... so, there were no updates going on...
After a few tries to fix this, I formatted my C drive where windows was installed, and re-installed the October update 2020. Also after installation, I updated it to the latest version... But the problem still persists...
Any idea how to fix this? Thank you in advance...
