Hi,

There is a feature under Windows Vista called System Restore..

try to restore it back to a nearest available restore point before the date in which the problem started..

It is probably a driver issue. Get the latest driver from here: *www.thinkdigit.com/forum/showthread.php?t=122510

Download and install. That should solve your problem.
