thanks for the reply Mik

Check all that also
changed memory, motherboard, cpu, networkcard but still the problem is there.
today i have build the harddisk in another workstation, but same problem so must be a software prob.

that's why i'm lost.

     Assuming that you have checked all the usual suspects (viruses,
     adware/spyware using Spybot), then in my experience this problem is
     often a memory or motherboard problem.

     Very annoying. If I am tranfering files, the transfer process
     terminates and corrupts the file (destination thankfully).
