Boot up issues

I usually have my iMac in sleep mode and this morning when I powered up to start work the screen froze. I waited 15 minutes and powered it down now when I try to reboot it get halfway thru the load screen and shuts off. Any ideas?

iMac, OS X 10.11

Boot into safe mode. While in the safe mode, you might want to try disk utility's "first aid" (Application --> Utilities --> Disk Utility) to see if any issue with the boot disk.

Reboot -- have your fingers crossed...


Hope you have a backup.
