Have you run Diagnostics on the hard drive to test it? Either by tapping F2 immediately after powering on -or if no Diagnostics available there tap F10 to enter BIOS and look for Diagnostics.

If the hard drive passes Diagnostics testing-Download and Save this file. Once download is complete, put a blank cd in your drive and click the file to create a boot cd. Boot with this cd and wait until you get a green check mark indicating hdd is ready. Remove the cd , insert first Recovery Disk and restart the laptop.

At this stage I would download AOMEI partitioning software. After installing open it and use the feature "Make bootable Media" to create a boot disk to work with the hdd. I would remove all partitions and then create just one and format it. Read through the review of AOMEI here:

When you ran Diagnostics did you test the memory as well as hard drive? If not go back and also test memory. If it passes- all that is left to do is replace the hard drive which seems suspect.
