    Try using your windows disk to boot up into a check disk utility.

    ^^ like said.

    get your Windows XP installation CD and autoboot it
    - press R to get into "Recovery Console"

    then in the Prompt, type: CHKDSK C: /R

    then after the scan, look at the summary to make sure there is 0 KB of bad sectors... because if its not zero, then you will have to replace your HDD.
