BTW: this 6% free space problem needs to be fixed. There is no way he can live with that. I suggest to get an external disk or a very large USB stick and move some of the user files outboard.
The hard drive has been cleaned up...all movies downloaded to an external. sys restore still doesn't work, and nothing else I've done helps at this point either. I'll run msconfig and go through the startup to see if any program is causing the issue.
