Doing a Repair Install as the other poster suggested would not be a good
idea. You need to troubleshoot the cause of this situation and you've not
given us any information with which to do so.

Please look at these links to see what details you need to include in your
next newsgroup post so we can help you:

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/555375 - How to Ask a Question

In the meantime:

The First Question Of Troubleshooting: what changed between the time things
worked and the time they didn't?

The Second Question of Windows Troubleshooting: what is the malware/virus
status of the machine? If you think it is clean, what programs (and
versions) did you use to determine this?

Be sure the computer is clean:

If you can't do the work yourself (and there is no shame in admitting this
isn't your cup of tea), take the machine to a professional computer repair
shop (not your local equivalent of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad). If
possible, have all your data backed up before you take the machine into a
shop.

Why is it not a good idea? If it doesn't work then the OP can go through the
tedious troubleshooting process.

Because it is doubtful that it will help. Doing a repair install over a
badly infected/damaged system will not fix it. Besides, you made
assumptions without having any information from the OP on which to base
them. For all we know, this could be a 6-year-old computer which suffered a
major power failure and now has a completely corrupted OS. Etc. That's why.

You still don't make sense, but then again, you don't have to. The MVP
status automatically makes you right.

I don't make sense because I disagree with you? Your response is just to
insult someone, eh? Doesn't make you look good. Not that I care, you're
going in my killfile anyway.

I'm not going to argue with you, but I will take the time to put this in
very simple terms you will understand:

When you are troubleshooting, you don't just plunge in and try things in a
scattershot fashion. Successful troubleshooting needs to be systematic and
careful. Here is a typical troubleshooting triage:

1. Ask client (or in this case OP) for the recent history of the machine. Do
this with the full understanding that they may not know or they may lie
because they're embarrassed. If you can find out anything, it will help
narrow down the troubleshooting path.

2. Ask client (or in this case OP) if the data is backed up and if it needs
to be. Always make sure the data is secured before starting major repairs.
Oh, and this would include a Repair Install.

3. Based on #1, #2, and examination of machine (hands-on examination is
obviously not possible in a newsgroup), take/make logical troubleshooting
steps.

You can look up any words you didn't understand at www.dictionary.com.
