(Get the code!)
Well. It finally locked up. It's about an hour since I started using it. This lock up is different than the ones before though. It still seems to be caused by the same thing (or the problem is causing this): hard drive I/O errors.
It locked up with the mouse working, and the cursor would change depending on where it was. So I decided to not tough anything, and just wait it out. Like I mentioned a while back, it did come back. This time though, it seems to stay back. It doesn't lock up permenently like before. But anything that has to do with reading the hard drive will make it display an error message or it will just do nothing. This is better than before, and i guess its pretty usable. I just have to open all the programs that I would want right when i log in. I'm gonna try updating my BIOS to see if that does anything. I could also try reinstalling it on a different drive (which could be a pain in the ass) to see if its from SATA or just my specific drive.
I hope the alternate cd helps other people more than it helped me. (although it did help me quite a bit)
