I have around 1300 files in "My Music" folder. I've noticed over time that
the displayed details keep disappearing and I have to re-enter them again
(e.g.. bit rate, duration, date modified etc.) I've also noticed that over
the last year or so my "Date Created" shows almost all my files are the same
date (05/13/2002) and the same time within minutes of each other. Months ago
only about half had this date and now 99% of them do. Now I'm noticing that
half of the "Date Modified" are changed to (02/09/2003) and that stops
alphabetically at the N's of my song list. Weird??? Any answers on how to
stop this degrading or even bring back my original dates? Thanks
 
I doubt you'll be able to bring the dates back. That is extremely strange
behavior.

Just as a generic troubleshooting question -- do you have a *good* virus
scanner that you keep *UPDATED*? If so, I'd recommend scanning your entire
computer. There are viruses out there that play with MP3s and other music
files.

Just a suggestion. Other than that, I'm not really sure.
 
Yes, I run my virus update twice a day.

No, I only access it on this OS and not via network. I really shouldn't say
no one could answer this question...no one ever replied is what I should
have written.
