Ok, I just got an old HP Pavilion 8670C, Pentium 3, unknown RAM, 30GB Hard Drive, Dvd Drive, and a CD-R/CD-RW drive. I formatted the hard drive then tried to install Windows XP. It transfers the setup files, restarts then goes back to the setup, where it says some files are missing. I click Ok until it comes up with an error saying that setup cannot continue. So I look at the log and I see some I/O error. I thought maybe it was my XP disk, so I tried my Ubuntu Linux disk. During startup I get these two errors "huh? expected NULL handler on exit" and "Buffer I/O error on device hdd, logical block 357566"

Is it my hard drive? Do I have to replace it or is there a fix for this problem?
