Some things? Turn off all non-microsoft tasks and see if it occures. If it does, you may need to reinstall Windows or use a restore point, but lets hope not. Sometimes a file will be damaged when you or windows moves it on the hard drive. I had it happen a few times and no, the hard drive was not bad or going bad. Guild Wars accesses several hundred files while it is loading, mostly DirectX, sound card drivers and video driver files, any one of them can cause the error.
Just a few questions to get an idea of what type of system you are using.
What version of windows are you using? 32 or 64 bit?
Have you done all the latest updates from MS?
What video card are you using and driver version? (Both Nvidia and ATI have released drivers that can cause this issue with some specific cards.)
Which Sound Card are you using? (There are a few Creative products have drivers known for this class of issue.)
What applications do you have running in the background at startup?
Is Guild Wars the only game that has this issue?
