If the computer is only six weeks old, contact the seller and tell them the

Matter of fact, the company that made the computer (Neutron Computers, locally in Kitchener, ON)
just replied to my email saying the would replace the hard drive.

Not sure what that will do, though - I tested the hard drive using both "HD Tune" and "WD
Diagnostics - neither test showed any surface defects.

Well, we'll see what happens when a new hard drive is installed - I'll keep you posted.

Thanks for all then suggestion and help so far!
