Apologies for being away for so long. Log in as an Administrator (if you are not already) and run a Scandisk check on the entire operating system files.

Sorry,,,, The ScanDisk utility is not available in Windows XP.
However, you can use the Error-Checking tool in Windows XP to check the integrity of your hard disk.
To check for file system errors and bad sectors on your hard disk, follow these steps:
1.
Double-click My Computer, and then right-click the local disk that you want to check.
2.
Click Properties, and then click Tools.
3.
Under Error-checking, click Check Now.
4.
Under Check disk options, select the Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors check box.
5.
Click Start.
You will be asked if you want to run the check at next boot. Answer YES, close all windows and restart the machine. Sit back and wait for it to complete. Windows will restart automatically when finished.

Does your machine meet the requirements outlined here;

Since you posted in the XP forum, it's possible you may need to install an earlier version.
