Oh, i have Ubuntu. In fact, i think i have Ubuntu 10.10 Meerkut Maverick. But its jsut that i am still not very familiar with ubuntu and its file classification and systems to work in it.
Now, if windows is showing such problem then i think i will take ur advice and move on to Ubuntu. Thanks a lot, i will keep you posted.
