More information is needed. What version of Windows? Have you added any new software, hardware, or external devices recently?

Well I ran diagnostics and i am running Windows xp media edition 2005, And it found the problem, some sectors on my hard drive went bad, i looked up the problem all i need to do is to reinstall my widows and in the near future purchase a new harddrive because the problem eventually spreads through out the whole hard drive.

For the sake of posterity, I would like to record that I chanced upon a SOLUTION to this problem. The symptoms were the same as those described by 'maximum802002'. I made an image of my hard drive (using Acronis True Image). Towards the end of this process the program reported one sector on my disk was unreadable so I told it to ignore this sector. I then wrote the image back to my hard drive and everything worked fine thereafter!!!

I had already run chkdsk on my drive with no success. But it seems that this faulty sector on the hard drive was the root cause of the problem and eliminating this sector through the disk imaging process was the cure.

the above problem happened to me too. i have advent laptop. REBBOT THE COMPUTER, THEN GO TO BIOS ( by keep pressing DEL key during the rebbot ) in BIOS i correct the key, and made the first boot CD.
THEN I PUT THE ADVENT CD. SURPRISINGLY........ THE PROBLEM SOLVED. HURRRRRRRRRRRAY.

I Mean I Correct The Date And Time.

You can check status of two service name are : Error Reporting Service and Event Log. If it is Disable you must change it to Automatic and restart your computer . ( you can open Service manager program by : Click Start>Run>services.msc )

i checked and they both are already enabled to automatic and are started this makes me think its not this causeing the problem

also, I just went to system restore and noticed something strange, everyday my computer has made a restore point it was with "Software distribution Service 3.0" could this explain anything?
