Well, perhaps this is asking the obvious, but is the hard drive full? If
it's not, and you're getting all kinds of hard-drive errors, it might be
that the hard drive is going bad.

Are you using an ATI Radeon video card?
If the Performance options under system properties advanced tab are set to
large system cache or priority for system cache on Win XP this can cause
these errors with some of the Catalyst drivers.
