go buy an external HDD or big USB pen and start to save all your personal data.
probably windows found some SMART errors and gave you time to backup before the HDD will die.

It is highly recommended to take a backup of your data immediately. Once you have done it, you can try running Check Disk to see if there are any errors with your hard disk. You can do this by following the instructions mentioned on the link below:
