First of all, take a look in Control Panel System and Maintenance Error
Reports and Solutions. Your problem should have been automatically reported,
and a solution may be available.

If not, try the System File Checker Tool:

Open up a command prompt window as administrator, by right-clicking the
command prompt icon Run as Administrator. Confirm. At the prompt, type
"sfc /scannow" (without the quotes). Keep your installation media close,
Windows might need it to replace corrupted files.

If neither works, you might consider System Restore, and in worst case a
repair install.
