ok, the first 2 (western dig covered under warranty), I wrote of to possible virus issues that had something to do with erasing the boot sector. hard drive num 3
was an old 80 gig fujitsu i had sitting around. that lasted about an hour. I wrote that off to being old. Hard drives number 4 (Western dig) and 5 (Seagate) both make that clicking nose you get when your hard drive fails. So that leads me hard drive number 6 (Seagate). I just finished installing win 7 and hoping for the best.
