A reformat reinstall is nothing more than erasing the disk and starting 
over, give or take some log files.

*) Erase all files associated with the application and reinstall, test
*) swap space is being corrupted?  turn off swap
    make swap with the check for bad blocks option, turn swap back on
*) Run harddrive diagnostics perhaps the harddrives are going bad
*) Run memtest+, if you can do this as an overnight burn in
*) Perhaps Steam is the problem, who knows?
