Default file fragment problem

My Word program is indiscriminately saving file fragments of docs that I am
working in with file names like: ~ $filename
They will not open as anything from Word and I have several of them in a
couple of hours.
Also, I am encountering hang-ups when attempting to save a file in Word and
the program just ends. When I re-open File recovery gives me the last saved
version, but no auto-saved version. I have auto-save scheduled every 5
minutes.
Is there a connection between the two problems....and help.
I am working on my dissertation and losing pages of info.....help!
Thank you
Sherry
