Hi Zaheer and everyone else that's tried to help with this, After an extended conversation with Dell and them getting on my machine, it was determined that I had a defective drive. Sorry for all the messages and trouble, but I just thought I'd let you guys know the outcome of all of this. Thanks very much for your help.
