Well, here's what I would do.

1) Turn off the computer for about a minute
2) Insert a boot disk and turn on the computer
3) Get some virus checker (hopefully on floppy) and scan your system thoroughly.

If you don't have a virus you should then run something like DiskSalv.  I assume you're running the standard FFS?  DiskSalv will give you a good idea of what's wrong and it might even fix everything for you.  It's possible that you might lose some files and might need to re-install.  Do you have backups?

How old is your HD?  It might be getting flaky.  Might wanna buy a new one.  This reminds me, I should backup my A4000 soon.
