Sounds like a possible bad drive, get a disk diagnose program, like Norton:
symantec.com
(Im not a fan of Norton products anymore, just my personal opinion)

or Spinrite:
grc.com

See Spinrite FAQ:
grc.com
SpinRite provides complete interaction with IDE-interface PATA (parallel ATA) and SATA (Serial ATA) drives, and it can also be used with any other type of drive — SCSI, USB, 1394/Firewire — that can be made visible to DOS through the addition of controller BIOS or add-on DOS drivers. To obtain the best performance, IDE drives can be temporarily removed from their external USB or Firewire cases and attached directly to the PC motherboard.

Here is a review of Spinrite:
