Try safe mode, then system restore. If that doesn't work, do you have the install disk? If you do, the boot into it and system restore. If you don't have that, or the system restore doesn't fix it, I'm thinking maybe a virus corrupted windows explorer o_O. If nothing works, I'll upload mine for you.

Windows automatically creates them when you install big programs and such.

What do you mean that or Crysis? That's uh weird?
Want me to backup some important files and send 'em your way? See if any of them fix it?

the recovery point took up enough space to not allow crysis...deleted it and disabled and i was able to install crysis

what kind of important files? what would they do?

I mean just like, if you want me to, I'll RAR and upload some system files for you. Like a complete backup of System32 or something.Then you can boot into osx and copy the files over from the rar into system32, or something...idk.

*edit* Uhm...it's not letting me RAR sys32. It wont give me access to Rar it.
