I have some programs that ran in MS Dos when i had windows 98, is their anyway that i would be able to use them?

It depends. I have a couple of old DOS games (single EXE) that still work, however the mouse pointer is very slow. As long as they're not disk utilities, they might work.

Did you try to check CPU usage in Task Manager? It seems to me - you can see 100%, right? If so, I could find a link to program which repair this...
