I went to school, opened up the files and they were file, so I plotted them. I was very relieved I had alot of hours invested. I came home and ran Repair and the message said it had repaired it. I tried it again and it hadn't repaired it. So as a last resort I did the Uninstall. After reinstalling everything seem to be working just fine. I'm very grateful to Mr. Connors and my friend from Pakistan for all their help.

Never uninstall/reinstall software BEFORE trying the REPAIR option. It will be found in the Add/Remove Software area of Windows.
If you do have to uninstall/reinstall AutoCAD there is a set procedure that AutoDesk recommends you follow to ensure a clean uninstall. If you don't follow the procedure your reinstall will probably fail to fix the problem.
I agree that you should first try to open the drawing on one of the school's computers.

If you have an option opening it on schools computer, go for it and see how it behaves. If the same thing happens, there is something wrong with the file for sure. And if it works perfect, you need to reinstall your software.

What do you think would happen if I tried to open the file on the schools computer?
