This is too vague. Describe the problem in more detail. What have you done to try to get it to work?

It begins to sound like you have a system (or hardware) problem - especially considering that it is happening with PowerCAD as well.

You should probably try some diagnostic programs like the Apple Disk Utility (included with the computer), Disk Warrior or TechTool. I assume you don't already own these (or you would have run them). If you know someone who has them you can just run the diagnostics from the CD. Otherwise the only solution may be to erase the hard drive and reinstall everything.

BTW: Turn off the caps lock. No need to shout.
