I tried copying to a different drive letter (different partition, I guess), but get the same problem.
>However, the fact that you can copy everything to a new computer and it compiles just fine makes me lean towards the idea that you might have a sector trying to go bad and one of your files is sitting on it. Especially when you try to create a new project with the same files. To test this, my suggest would be to copy off the files, delete them completely and run some diagnostics on your drive. I would suggest a de-frag, but that would probably only put another file on the 'bad' spot and move your problem around.
