It sounds like either:

a) your hard disk directory is damaged (less likely) or
b) your hard disk is toast (more likely)

The installation of Reader is probably a red herring. Hopefully, you 
have a backup of your data. I would try to use the disks that came with 
your computer to erase the hard drive (zero it out if that is an option) 
and re-install your operating system. If that doesn't work you will need 
a new drive.

In the case you do not have a backup, I'd recommend you look at the 
various utilities that try to remove data from a bad hard drive. I don't 
have enough experience with these utilities to make a recommendation.
