You just are moving files from one location to another. Take everything from your MY DOCUMENTS folder and place it in a folder like C:\Test.

I missed your instructions before my last response!! That's what I get for not noticing there was a 2nd page!!!
I've moved the files that I could (there are still several out there in "my document"), I've moved a folder into "my documents" that I know works and rebooted....all with no success.
In between our conversations I've been trying to do more research so that I won't have to continually bother you and I ran across something about XP...could there be a problem with it?
Thanks!!!

Create a New User Account on your computer (START-->CONTROL PANEL and in the new window that appears double-click on User Accounts) and then log out of your current account and in with that new account and see how MY DOCUMENTS behaves.

I've created a new account and added some empty folders & a couple of documents and so far it is running smoothly. Does this mean something is corrupt in the other account? If so, can it be detected? If not, is there a way to transfer the files from my account to the new account?

You can definitely try this since it doesn't appear to be a file in that location that is corrupt (proven when we moved every file out of that folder earlier) and so shouldn't cause any problems.Yes. Accounts are located in C:/Documents and Settings/<username> You could try copying the whole My Documents folder over to a new account.

I set up the new "test" user account and transferred "my document" files over to this account. It has stopped responding.

Then one of the files is corrupted. Just a matter of creating a new account and trial and error-ing to seeing which file(s) is/are the culprit. Nothing else you can do.
