Thankful For Everything, Except For My Computer...

So, uh, bad news first. Something has screwed up my computer, causing it to reboot every 30 mins to an hour of use, and I'm getting warning messages about Critical Structure Errors, or Memory errors. I've done some fancy command prompt .exe's, scans, and dozens of reboots. Either it's a Windows Update gone wrong, a virus that I can't find, or my computer is finally calling it quits after six years counless hours of reading Wikipedia articles, playing computer games, modding said computer games or drawing a few pictures. Who knows?
Therefore, I'm resetting my computer as my second to last resort. I've saved a backup, but well, I don't know how deep this problem is so I might loose everything. Perhaps, I might be able to salvage a few things, or get it back up and running with little to no hiccups. Again, who knows?
UPDATE: While typing this the reset failed, causing it to reboot and cancel. So, I'm going to have to purge everything. I copied all of my SAI files and SAI program to my external hard drive, so hopefully I won't loose my art. But yeah, a hard wipe/restart is required. Good lord...
However, this also means that I might be in the market for a new computer, but this had to happen right now on the eve of Black Friday, so I doubt that I'll really have the time to look up new computers or all of the deals are already all gone. :-/ Oh well.
So, other than that massive amount of drama, everything's all well and fine for me. I just want to get this all resolved and repaired. I guess this will force me outside to spend some more time with my horses. :-P
But, for the rest of you all, I hope all of you have a good day, and be thankful that you're not having my computer troubles! :-D

OP
I seriously have no idea what or how it got screwed up, and it's still not fixed...

It's so weird. Computers are so finicky sometimes too!
