This type of error usually is a result of after re-installing WIndows, you
try to copy to the windows directory the configuration of old windows
applications.  The registry is then completely lost.  If you have
re-installed windows from scratch or if you installed it in a different
directory, you have no choice but re-installing all your windows
applications.  Copy them back to the folder will just results in the type of
problems you are talking about.

If you haven't done that  then sorry but I cannot help.
