But in the mean time, try filemon.exe running in the background to see what program might be causing this failure.

Device failure is just that, a device. What has changed in your system to start this problem, software, hardware change, etc.?

You can try filemon.exe here:

http://www.sysinternals.com/ntw2k/source/filemon.shtml

It's easy to use, just read up a bit on it. It will start a log in the background and when the machine pop's, once you reboot you should be able to go back to the log and see what the last software program running was.
