Try Bitcoin Core. If it's the same problem (very likely) then you have a corrupted database and have to reindex, sorry. There's a command line flag for this.

Assuming you mean WINDOWS 7 you:
1) Create a shortcut for bitcoin-qt on your desktop.
2) Right-click the shortcut and select properties.
3) In the field labeled Target type -rescan on the end.

P.S. default is "C:\Program Files (x86)\Bitcoin\bitcoin-qt.exe" so the target field would end up looking like
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Bitcoin\bitcoin-qt.exe" -rescan.

-rescan Rescan the block chain for missing wallet transactions on startup
-reindex Rebuild block chain index from current blk000??.dat files on startup

reindex works fine for me :p
