Iv just installed windows 7 32 bit on my work pc and log in using my username and password for my domain. Yesterday after installing it i copied my email and documents from my server on to my pc and then installed a couple of programs i needed. i set up my email account and everything was working perfect. i logged in this morning and all my documents hav gone and my email account settings have been wiped. also opening internet explorer was like opening it for the 1st time. i thought i had logged in with a wrong account but its the only account on my pc and i tried sending a file from my server again logged out and back in and it was gone. also i pinned some shortcuts to my task bar and also they disapear everytime i log out and bk in. please can any1 help me with this??

i installed it using a 32 bit ultimate disk the company brought. the install was fine no problems and yesterday everything seemed fine just when i logged in this morning its lost everything
 
I tend to think they are either there somewhere or they never got there... Like you were looking at them on the server.. if stuff was just disappearing then I doubt whatever it eating it woud leave alone all the necessary programs for windows to boot and let you log on you account.

You know you have both public and private folders for documents, music, photos.. etc... maybe you put them in the public folders and now you are trying to find them in your private folders??
 
iv searched all files and still cant find them, Also i have tried copying another file from an external hard drive and its their but when i log out and back in its gone. same with my email settings and internet explorer. it seems to just remove everything apart from the programs i install. how can i check if something aint booting properly or do you have any other surgestions

Your monitor probably works.. I would recommend smashiing something else.

First, suspect your graphics drivers. Look for and install new ones.

Clear your cmos. Maybe something in your bios has been changed.

Look at your administrative logs under Event Viewer /custom for clues as to what needs attention.

Try Xcopy from the command prompt. This just doesn't make sense to me. I have noticed that sometimes when I just drag and drop files in Windows Explorer it only creates shortcuts in the new folder.

Are you runing the final release? I noticed that in the rc versions there was a bug... when trying to build VHD's bcdedit.exe would just disappear.... couldn't be found.. but runing Attrrib bcdedit.exe it was there.
