That should not be required. Sounds like you have a hardware problem or a virus.
Do a thorough OFFLINE virus scan. http://www.raymond.cc/blog/archives/2008/12/11/13-antivirus-rescue-cds-software-compared-in-search-for-the-best-rescue-disk/
Make sure you have the correct and most recent drivers.
Windows may also be corrupted. This may require reinstalling Windows to fix.
