get a prog that will stress test your computer..all components

That might very well be the reason

I guess it wouldn't hurt to try a stress test on my whole system but there's really nothing wrong with it except for this odd behaviour.

U2Lynne > yes - I run (and create when needed) md5's as soon as I have downloaded any fileset be it mp3/avi/rar etc. I'm using utorrent 1.7.7

This behaviour is random and doesn't target any specific flac fileset and usually happens after x amount of time. I don't really see a pattern or anything in common between the files other than they are all flacs.....
