I’m on a MacBook Pro 17 late 2011. I haven’t been able to update the OS. It locks up when I try. The only way I can get my Mac to work again is to restore from the last time machine backup. Even a reinstall recovery won’t work. Any ideas?

I’ve check Disk Utility and it says everything is fine but I suspect the hard drive.
