I really wrecked the kitchen (Help Please)

[yamus08]

Yesterday, I had my first experience with cooking a ROM. This is something I have wanted to do since my first visit to this site. I downloaded Build OS and ran the updater which gave me the new 3.49 kitchen and the No2Chem 6067 kitchen. After making my selections, I was able to build my ROM and boy was I psyched! After playing with my new toy for about 15 minutes, the phone started shutting off on its own. I decided to try again using a different kitchen, this time the 3.49. This time everything seemed to go fine and no problems with the phone shutting down. Now I was hooked!
I went to build for a 3rd time and shortly after the build status box popped up I got a message about certain files being in use by another program. I decided to restart and try again. Same problem. I then decided to uninstall BuildOS and reinstall. This time, when I ran the updater, I noticed that I still had the updates and did not need to download again. Unfortunately, this still didn't fix the problem.
I started thinking...maybe it is something in one of the updates that is messed up so I went I decided to directly everything directly that had updated the first time I ran the updater, including the shareware and oem files. Now, I can not get the updater to find them again nor can I cook anything which really sucks. Is there anyway to completely start fresh or resolve this problem in anyway. I feel like I'm going to go into DT's if I can't cook again. Thanks in advance geeks.
