Random Checksum mismatch on fresh checkout affecting single machine

Hi
I am part of a development team of approximately 30 people, all but a couple using Windows 7 64it clients. One of our users is experiencing random checksum errors when performing a fresh, clean checkout. The problem is random in that it is a different file every time we perform the test. Below is an example of the error. This case happens to show an XSL file, but it is any kind of file that goes wrong. This does not go wrong for any other user. We have tried to narrow it down to a directory, or repository. It appears that it fails all the time for one repository, yet using a different repository on the same server, a clean checkout worked twice in succession. I don't know whether this is just luck though.
I am presuming that the data received for the contents of the file is being validated against some metadata data for the file. We have tested using an externally attached hard drive to check the disk is not the problem - same outcome. Therefore I am presuming that the data is somehow becoming corrupt or going missing.
Is the client code check summing the disk contents, or the data as it comes from the TCP socket?
Please can somebody offer assistance as to how I can further look into this problem, or what the likely problem may be and why this would only affect a single machine.
Setup with problem:
svn: Checksum mismatch for 'W:\000\pharosutilWIP\resource\xsl\pxf_templates-v1_9.xsl':
Many Thanks
