You can check using Task Manager under the "Performance" tab, it'll be labeled "Up Time"

Well, I have a reason. The part of my HDD that contains my Master Boot Record is on the verge of having no more read/write cycles, meaning that one day very soon I'm going to be unable to boot my PC.

I had to restore the MBR two times in order to get my PC to successfully boot, last time it got shut down.

Computers still have that?

Or, if I'm as lucky as last time, it'll crash while watching a 480p YouTube video.

if you don't count down time of just a few minutes, it would probably be well over 2 years.

It was a link to a song on Youtube for the song topic. I attempted to copy and paste my computer's time here, and it didn't work right. I ended up posting the song instead. I pressed post too fast and had to edit.
