What harddisk model is the system on? Have you checked (if enabled) the self monitoring status? Use S.M.A.R.T. Assistant (free).

I use CrystalDiskInfo 3.8.0. that uses SMART data. The system disk never goes above 27C. The Cores (LGA 775 Socket T) never go above 42C. I installed 8 fans and adjust speeds via software.

The data for the 1 TB Samsung is good.

Is one overclocking anything originally?

I am not overclocking. I have not been able to resolve the pnpui.dll issue since January.

Unfortunately Samsung's HUTIL fails ("Abnormal program termination") both from floppy and CD. :-( I wrote to them, but am not holding my breath for a reply.

I run chkdsk /f once a week, every week.

If it's an ATA/ide drive try swapping a jumper between 'CS' cable select or 'Master' reboot
If there are any other drives on same cable - disconnect reboot
swap out Ata 100 cable in case it is faulty

I ran Samsung's HD Utility ESTool 3.01 in DOS (booted on it). I have done swapping of controllers, swapped the drives in and out the box and external enclosure.

There is nothing wrong with the drive, nor with the file organization. Some rogue program corrupted a couple of drivers and nobody seems to know how to fix them.

It's a Windows 7 issue, not hardware.

"Some rogue program"

Doesn't sound like a Windows 7 issue to me.

You mean to say that you have not had an "official" Windows Update bring your OS to its knees?

I regularly use registry cleaners and several antispyware programs (manually and in series). Who knows what one of these well-intentioned guys may have done at some point. :-/

I replaced the two dll files with fresh ones from the install DVD. The errors remain.

Bare Foot Kid · 11 Sep 2010

No, I have never had an update from WU disable my PC as I don't let it "auto-update" I decide what is added to my system.

The issue is probably with your use of "registry cleaners and several antispyware programs" that's your whole issue right there, stop using them and I can almost guarantee the issues will stop.
