Your Issue

Are you exp with computer service and repair ? As the Above post mentioned you need to use a winxp cd and boot into recovery console and restore the file or you can also do a refresh install of winxp if all else fails - without losing the clients files all it does is reinstall all XP core files

If you need help with any of this email me at valcomputers@gmail.com and I will help you further with this issue
