could be drive failing, id go to ibm's www site and grab their diagnostic
tools(you need win* to run the installer) it makes a bootable PCDOS disk
with their diagnostics util.  very easy to use and appears very very
powerful.  run the advanced test on it, the basic test couldnt detect any
defects on the last drive i had that died.
