Security cameras working but files saving are corrupt

I have a building with sixteen cameras running Geovision GV-600 to an XP computer.  I know both are really old, but it has been working fine.   Until a couple weeks ago where the cameras all seem to work and you can see which cameras are picking up motion.  But now the files are being saved as 0 kb and there is nothing there.   They were usually saved as .avi files.   Any idea what would cause the cameras to pick up motion and seem to work but save an .avi file with all 0 kb?

I ran chkdsk but there was no apparent issue.  The video all of a sudden just started working again and has been working ever since.   I will keep a close watch on the drive and controller card.   Thanks for the suggestions
