If the drive is failing then piece of software will fail to load and cause issues like this. You should replace the drive, and throw your current one away. I would also salvage any data that is deemed important as well.

My work schedule is as follows: Mon and Tues 1800 to 0600, Friday - Sunday 1800EST to 0600, and Wednesday to Thursday 1800est to 0600. So if I do not respond right away I am at work.

Ok, thanks for this, cryptodan.

I'm going to tell him this should be the best bet.

Cheers for your help! :-)
