New build, bad part?

Hey guys. I just finished installing all my games on my computer. Tried them all out, worked fine. Tried Warcraft 3 out, worked fine. I played some B.Net ( A game that crashes a lot, due to tons of units. ) So the game crashed, it was normal like how it was on my old PC. I restarted warcraft 3, tried to connect to B.Net - And it said

"There was an error with you're hard drive while trying to download a file from battle.net. You may need to free up some more space. blah blah blah..."

We'll this doesn't make sense because I have a 750 GB hard drive from WD.

I also opened up speedfan and it no longer registers the hard drive's temp.

I also have windows 7 RC installed.

I played WoW for about 7 hours doing fine, nothing went wrong till now.


Bad hard drive? I ordered it from Amazon.com because of all the horrible reviews about Neweggs shipping on OEM drives.

Download and run WD Diags.

I've been buying hard drives from Newegg for years - NEVER had a shipping issue.
