If another component is causing the crashing, it is not the HDD's fault - it simply can't boot since there is a discrepancy with the functionality of another piece of hardware.

Faulty HDD? So you are saying you've replaced it before?

Sometimes doing a reformat of the user partition/Windows is all it takes to resolve system-side software problems. It's not the HDD's fault necessarily (hardware-wise), but information can be misplaced, causing those errors.
