Use a bootable hard drive diagnostic to test your hard drive. This topic has links to the most common ones: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/topic28744.html

Use your Vista disk to access the Repair function, then go to the Command Prompt and run CHKDSK /R on each hard drive

The nvdisp4.dll error is related to your graphics card drivers. Uninstall the current one and visit http://www.nvidia.com to download the latest version.
