My first instinct is to assume the HDD is going and Disk Utility is simply not sensitive to notice it. I'd suggest checking the memory (pretty sure you should be able to make a bootable disk with memtest86 on it that your Mac can boot) and checking the HDD with a more robust tool (or just trying the install on a different HDD entirely).
