You have to uninstall and reinstall all the program.start clean-up process during that switch to permissions on.Run in Safe Mode to access my permissions and ownerships.The programs that are working have Owneras being the owner of the programs, while the ones that aren't working have Administratorsas being the owners. I'm unsure how to switch this. Under the options to change ownership are: Administrator and Administrators.Try to run chkdsk /r.If you do not have a windows xp disk, download the following file: rc.iso....go here..then run chkdsk /r
from the rc.iso cd...be sure the bios is set to boot from the cd drive first...

You need ISO files for repair this. Get burncdcc ..a small FAST no frills iso burning program. Start BurnCDCC-Browse to the ISO file you want to burn on cd/dvd ....in this case its rc.iso-Select the ISO file-click on Start.Make sure in the bios is the CD the first boot device. Put the CD into the CD player .boot your computer .. When you reach the screen that gives you the option to install or repair .. . Select R. .. then when you arrive at the command prompt ... Type chkdsk / r. Press.

To verify this, right-click My Computer on your Desktop and select the Properties command. On the System Restore tab, ensure that the Turn off System Restore on all drives is clear.
