Make
sure your hard drive and cable are OK. Use Chkdsk or Scan disk
to do a full harddrive scan. (A faulty IDE cable commonly causes
CRC problems). You can usually download Hard Drive test tools
from the manufacturers website.

Make sure your Memory is OK, run a
memory check utility, or test by removing one piece at a

borrowed piece, while removing old chip)
