You appear to have a problem with your hard disk.

Try using the Hibernate function and see if it gives the samer result.

If so, go out and buy yourself a new Hard Drive and prepare for hours of rebuilding your software confiuration. Make sure you run the Files and Settings Transfer Wizard to save all you stuff onto a BIG file on the current Hard Drive, then bring it onto the new Hard Drive using the wizard again.
