Extensive File Corruption

[plunK]

So a while back i was playing Jazz 2, and i began having problems with the main menu, it turned out that my beach2.j2l had become corrupt, and was causing the macro to crash. I thought nothing of it. Then a few weeks ago i was preparing to play some JDC duels online, and i discovered that my Battle2and 3 were corrupt. I thought very little of it and jsut replaced them. A few days later the trouble began again, with my new versions, So i investigated. Besides those 2, Capture2, Capture4 and Psych2 were corrupt. I started getting suspicous and replaced tehm all, as well as replaced the Jazz2.exe and JCS.exe with the versions of my disc. Yesterday i was playing around with the Medivo secret level, and discovered that trigger crates and secret area warps were giving me an error message. I started to get frustrated and left. Then today i was playing through the campaign, and several levels, such as Castle Night showed corrupt and give me a divide by zero message. I already used ZapS's utility and these are not incorrect version problems.
Any suggestions?

Uninstall entirely and reinstall instead from the disc, then patch it and see if you still have corruption problems. If they persist, you might have issues outside of JJ2.

Yeah this sounds like a bigger problem than just something jj2 related... if files are randomly becoming corrupt, you should run some sort of diagnostic on your computer. It could be anything.

If you are using windows, it might be a good idea to start in the recovery console (you can do so by booting the windows CD and following the instructions) and run "chkdsk", to check your hard drive for errors.

Check your disks SMART status. It might be on the brink of dying, or the writing heads are broken.

I will definately do that.

If that is the case, I will be extremely mad, because both of my hard drives are under 3 weeks old. I had 2 brand new 500GB hard drives put in on around July 2nd 2009. Errors maybe, but they are definately not dying(and if they somehow are i better get new ones on warranty)

Are the drives configured in a RAID setup?

[plunK]

Nope. both are compltely independant. One is teh OS and the other is games and apps.
