NTFS.sys.

Sounds like something is wrong with your hard drive. But that's just me.

I'd bet that you're currently bloated like a water ballon on a hot summer's day.

That analogy doesn't even make sense.  Why would a water balloon be especially bloated on a hot summer's day? For your sake, I hope there wasn't too much logic testing on your LSAT.

If you boot off Slackware disk 2, you should be able to run dmesg.

Okay - I'll try that tonight before I go to bed (since I want to use my computer until then). Thanks!

That's what I thought too. I'm looking into replacing it soon (as I mentioned before).

Any suggestions? I'm probably going to go Western Digital if there are none.

Damnit, Newby beat me to it!

Yeah, to me it looks like a problem with your hard-drive..
Can we get computer specs (and links if possible) of your parts?

I've had nothing but bad luck with Western Digital.

I say go for a Barracuda. Maxtor is pretty good too.

WD has always been nothing but nice to me. So has maxtor. Actually, come to think of it, I've never had a harddrive problem in my life. But anyway, I'm thinking about buying a new harddrive for one of my computers, maybe the server. So yeah, suggestions. :) Those 74GB Raptors are nice.  :P

Too lazy to post links, but here's basically what I'm using:

AMD 64 3400+ Processor
Asus KN8-E Delux Motherboard
Nvidia XFX 6800 GT Video Card (AGP)
Western Digital 120GB SATA (7,200 RPM)

Everything else I use is likely moot/onboard.

Don't listen to War, he's crazy. :P

Odd. Your HD seems fine to me. You MIGHT need to buy a new one if that one is somehow scrapped. Try switching your HD's if you have 2+. Make another one C:\ and see if you get that problem still.

WoW is buggy enough on windows, I don't want to know how bad it would be on another OS. :P (I've heard WoW is hell on MacOS, but then again, what isn't?)

Apparently it runs under wine as well as it runs under Windows, once you get it going.
