Uninstall/reinstall the problem programs. By treating your laptop the way
you did, the programs were corrupted.

Are you saying the program worked OK for a while and then got worse? If yes,
then possibly you have a failing hard drive or flaky RAM. This would cause
file corruption.

It might be time to do some hardware testing, at least of the drive and the
RAM.

1) You can test the memory yourself. I believe that Vista has a memory
tester, but I like Memtest86+ from www.memtest.org. Obviously, you have to
get the program from a working machine. You will download the .iso to make
a bootable cd. Burn the file with third-party burning software - as an
image, not as data. Then boot with the media you made (you may need to
change the boot priority in your BIOS so that the optical drive is the
first boot device). The test will run immediately. Let the test run for an
hour or two - unless errors are seen immediately. If you get any errors,
replace the RAM.

2) Test the hard drive with a diagnostic utility downloaded from the drive
mftr.'s website. You will create a bootable CD with the file you download.
You will need third-party burning software to do this such as Roxio, Nero,
or the free CDBurnerXP Pro. Burn as an image, not as data.

Boot with the CD you made and do a thorough test of the drive. If it fails
any physical tests, replace it.
