Corrupted Hard Drive

The culprit? From what I can see, it was most likely Disk Cleanup. That’s right, an application which is supposed to make your computer run faster just broke mine.

Though, at the same time, I’m not sure whether or not this issue is stemming from Disk Cleanup. It could possibly be a section of bad hard drive sectors.

I’m still diagnosing the failure so I’ll put another update on when I figure it out.

FWIW - It looks like Visat 64 is corrupting my HDD whenever I put the page file on the secondary drive. I replaced the secondary drive and it ran fine for days UNTIL I put the page file on it. Coincidentally (!?!?!) SP1 (to be released today) fixes I/O problems when moving data between disks…. AAAAARRRRGGGGHH!
