Your HDD has a problem and you need to run the diagnostic tools from the HDD
manufacturer CD or download from their website for your HDD specs.
Try to perform a check disk by using the recovery console, you will need the
installation media (XP CD):
Try to run the chkdsk /r from the Recovery console and also the Fixmbr:
