VertiTech,
I am a little confused here.
What x64 OS are you running?
You say "I have upgraded my DirX to 10".
DirectX 10 is not a separate download and is embedded in Windows Vista x64.
There is no DX10 for Windows XP x64.
You also say you "reloaded the x64 operating system".
Did you install it again from scratch or you copied it from the failing HD?
Did you replace the failing HD with a new one and the new installation is
equal to the one you had before?
