That could be as a result of some internal re-configuration. What size does FDISK return? (Be careful!) Or CHKDSK? Or DIR? > I have looked at the > cmos battery but that seems to be still ok.

Try slowing the system down. If the CPU is going faster than some of your cache or RAM can handle, a weak, or slow bit can cause the system to hang. I have a system that works fine as long as I slow down (or disable) the external cache. One of the cache chips is different from the others. Maybe someday, I'll find the right chip to replace it properly, but for now, I'll leave things as they are.
