Can you advise me how to reinstall itunes properly?

when i open itunes it says i can not burn cds and that i need to reinstall itunes.  i am afraid of doing it because i do not want to lose my playlists or purchased songs.  do you know the appropiate way to reinstall itunes without loosing my playlists and purchased songs?

The best way would be to cleanly remove iTunes and redownload the latest release.
Essentially you want to go to Start -> Control Panel -> Add/Remove Programs and uninstall these 6:
iTunes
QuickTime
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support
Bonjour
Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
You will then want to restart the computer. After the restart you will then want to download the latest version from the following link.
Hit the big blue 'Download Now' and hit the option 'Save' when prompted. Save to an easy location such as your desktop and then wait for the download to finish. Once the download is finished you will be prompted to run the file, do this to run through the iTunes Setup Wizard.
You can find more detailed instructions here.
