If you had so much trouble getting XP to install, then there's no way you can consider 
the current installation the "final."

Once you track down the solutions to the problems you encountered, then you test 
how well the system is running by how smoothly a normal installation goes.  After 
about the third uneventful installation in a row, you might then think about running 
with that one.

You mentioned you thought the HDD could be one of the culprits.  It's easy to go 
to the HDD's manufacturer's website and download the diagnostic utility that will 
test the disk.
