HD access makes Windows freeze

I have a problem with my 300GB Seagate hard drive. Whenever I try to access anything on the drive my computer freezes for about 10 seconds. When my comp freezes my explorer.exe process jumps to 99% usage. It seems like there is a problem with the read/write times because after 10 seconds I can see the files and access them, so I know they are still there. For example, when I play a video file it will play for 5 sec, freeze, play for 5 sec, freeze, etc...

This problem has been bugging me for over a week and Seagate support sucks so I came here.

I would really appreciate any help on this.
