Thanks, Thane.

I did finally get the Samsung diagnostic utilities loaded on a CD-ROM and ran it. It turns out that one of the Samsung Spinpoint 500 GB HD was indeed having CRC errors like crazy...I don't think it was the one the OS was installed on, but it sure caused major headaches.

I've got Windows 7 RC installed now. The reload is a major bear! What are people using for AV on Win7RC? I have AVG on now.

What's the best way to determine of an HD is going bad?
