Xp is F*ing me over
So I reloaded XP and everything was running great and when I turned on my computer this morning about 6 files on my desktop were missing. One of them was my music file. I can still play the music with Itunes but can no longer find the file that contains the music. I did a search and it shows it there but when I manually look for the file nothing.
Also my windows media player and outlook express both dissapeared.
It also takes quite a bit longer to load windows than before.
I am thinking that this might be a bad CPU problem. The reason I think that is when I took it out of my old board, it pulled out with the heatsink still attached. A couple of the pins were adjusted out of place but I put them back to normal and the CPU fit back into the Mobo. I'm not sure but it just feels like a CPU problem.
Any thoughts? I'm confused why the files would just dissapear. I had my quick launch toolbar up by the start bar and now that is gone is well.
