Partitioning Troubles

So I put in the WinXP disc, open boot camp asst. and it prompts me to set partition size. I set it to 32GB and hit continue, BC loads a little progress bar, and the app freezes; after a couple minutes it wakes up and gives me a popup that says that it was unable to partition mac HD.

So I reboot my computer and try again, this time setting Partition size to 40GB,
and my computer completely locks up.

So I shut it down, yell at it, and reboot. This time I open Disk Utility and click verify disc, and my 'puter dies again.

What might be the problem, and how might I go about fixing it?

Edit: I ran Verify disk again and got the following message:
"FIRST AID FAILED
Disk Utility stopped verifying “Macintosh HD” because the following error was encountered:
Filesystem verify or repair failed."
What is this?!
