same thing happened to me years ago, and in my case my hard drive was dying. It was slowly developing more and more bad sectors, in turn causing more and more programs to stop working. Run window's disk check to see the status of your HD.

For the best quality mp3s use EAC (exact audio copy) to rip your audio CDs and LAME to encode them. Follow this guide:

do a thorough scandisk as nothing mentioned about using restore disk. goto "my computer" to your c:drive & right click it. a menu comes up & left click "properties" & goto "tools". there are 2 boxes unchecked so check mark them & windows says need to restart windows so can scandisk the drive. restart windows to let it do it's job. what anti-virus & anti-spyware programs are you using??

the reason i was asking about another computer was to safe any info you want temporarily, put your drive back into your computer so can use the restore disk than put drive back into mom's to get your info back put drive back into your computer. did that on a customer's computer when upgrading to xp went bad.
