"19.1" suggests you may be using Linuxmint. I suggest you ask the mods to move this thread to
https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-mint-84/ if I'm correct in that assumption. If I'm not, we need at least to know the distro you have installed. Info about your laptop could be useful if not mandatory as well. From a rescue media, output from
would give us this basic info.
To give is info asked for in #2, try this:
Code:
sudo smartctl -a /dev/sda | pastebinit
which should provide a URL you can give us to see it.
