Jason:

You're reviving a thread from 2009 (http://www.stata.com/statalist/archive/2009-11/msg01290.html) that I responded to, but I don't think the answer has changed, the best answer is still probably contacting Stata Tech Support.  

I can't think of any explanation for what you describe except for a problematic install of Stata or problems with your OS for which the Stata issues you describe are symptoms. You should try updating (type -update all-) and/or re-installing Stata from your disk, but if those don't work, Stata Tech Support is probably your only option.
