    I'd just replace the drive belt again. It's showing all the classic symptoms of a slipping belt and it may just have been replaced with a bad one (or a rubber band, as I've seen before)

    but maybe that check in ROM can measure drive speed (iirc) and that might show belt problems. its worth trying anyway.
    just use some blank diskette when testing.

    btw, andy is probably right.
