    I feel this is a warning that perhaps the Hard Disk controller on the motherboard may be failing ?
    I've seen it before where cutting off the electricity helps overcome this type of weakness and ultimately total failure.

    You could try opening it up and removing all the cards/connectors and plugging them all back in again to see if this re-seating helps the situation ?

    If it weren't for the message of "non boot disk" I would have assessed the problem was probably a bad power supply. Try the cable maintenance itworks recommends.
