Well, friday I popped up dos in a window and tried to run a DOS program.
I got the message, "Sector not found reading drive C:". I typed "exit" 
returning me to windows. I promptly quit windows telling it not to
save it's configuration. Upon running chkdsk I encountered multiple
problems. Chkdsk could not repair the disk. No matter what I did after
that, I would get the sector not found error. I suspect that windows
overwrote the boot sector disk information table and dos did not totally
understand the geometry.

I had to completely re-install everything. This has happened to me several
times. I would have to conclude that Windows has severe bugs. (So what else
is new )
