That is to say, I'll reboot once in a while and browse to something on E: Then an error message pops up:

"E:\directory is inaccessible. The directory is corrupt and unreadable." If I reboot, a message shows that my drive(E needs to be checked for consistency. If I let it, a metric buttload of indices are deleted. I'd like to hear any opinions you guys may have.

Specs are:
Windows 2000 Pro, SP4
1.3GHz T-bird
512mb ram
(Side note, the drive is formatted as one drive, but is NOT on a promise card.)

How could faulty RAM lead to this error message? That's odd...

Cactus is an unknown quantity at this point
Sounds like a problem I had a log time ago; the drive wasn't recognized by the BIOS so I had to add it manualy. After inputting the exact drive parameters I had the same problem. Same problem after a BIOS update. Only after I decreased the size of the drive in the BIOS sligtly the problem was gone.
