This is an annoying pop up each time appears on your screen with the message "Back up your files immediately to prevent information loss, and then contact the computer manufacturer to determine if you need to repair or replace the disk."

Giving three choices,

2. Ask me again later and
3. Don't ask me about this problem again, which is definately not the option you want to select.

Usually this error caused by Hard Disk failure or it may simply a system error. There are many other factors can cause the issue such as,
