>Since loading the iPod software and iTunes, I have had
two distinct problems: my PC CPU usage hangs at 100%, and
I am unable to access the Internet (both web browser and
mail program unable to find server). Rebooting
temporarily solves both problems. However, at every
reboot, XP runs Checkdisk (Diskcheck, whatever), finding
bad links in lost chains at all clusters.

improvement. I uninstalled all the software. That
didn't help either, so I did a system restore to a date
before the iPos install, and I still have the same
problems.

I think the HDD is dying. Does anyone see it differently?

>itunes can alter your drivers to hardware,like your
burner,processore,motherboard,video,or even ethernet card
or modem drivers(could be why you lose your
connection),changing your settings as you work,stopping
you midstream!You may have to do a clean install,sounds
like a software problem,harddrive would crash a lot
differently,Try ad aware from
http://www.webattack.com/get/adaware.shtml
run that,see if yhat helps you,but sounds like the damage
is done,backup,save your files and do a clean install.
