    What software are you using to play them with? There are some settings in iTunes for example that copy any file you play with it to your iTunes library, possibly it could be set to delete the original by settings also?

    Use either Songbird http://getsongbird.com/ or WinAmp http://www.winamp.com/.

    For your lost music. Check "My Music" (not trying to treat you like an idiot but just to be sure) in My Documents. But I agree with Mr. Incognito. It doesn't sound like you're saving them properly. Overall my advice would be to format your Hard Drive, install XP and never worry about Vistas problems again :)
