watch your language dude, no profanity is permitted here at aD.

boot your system in safe mode (F8) and backup all your personal data first to an external hard drive or CDRs. then reboot and let windows run recovery. if it crashes or deletes data you won't have to worry about it.

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