Hi there tomhawk64,

If the stuff that cin19 proposed you does not solve your problem, most probably your HDD is failing.
I would suggest you to try to run chkdsk /R H: where H: is the drive letter. This will locate bad sectors and eventually recover readable information.

You can check out the following thread: http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/290974-32-drive-accessible-parameter-incorrect

Hope this will help,
