Thanks for all the replies to my hard disk problem by mail and on the net. To summarize the replies I got by mail, it seems that I should scrutinize my hard disk with a utility. I got recommendations for SPINRITE 2. One person said that this looked like possible symptoms of impending death. Another possibility was that the files being read (for which no sector was found) were files that were written last a long time ago. In that case, it was recommended to refresh them as the information might have been lost. That is not the case for me, the files are actually rewritten quite often. Thanks Eric
