To recover your operating system when your computer does not start correctly or does not start at all, you may want to install and use the Windows Recovery Console. Check this Microsoft guide : How to install and use the Recovery Console in Windows XP

Follow these instructions :

On the "Windows XP Professional Setup" menu and select "R" for Recovery Console.
You will be prompted to select the Windows installation to repair (usually just "1" ).
Enter the Administrator password.
At the command-prompt, type any valid command.
To get an overview on the supported commands, type : HELP

To get more detailed information on any of these commands, type the commannd followed by "/?", which will then display the specific Help-information.
------------------------------------------------------
You have access to :
- the root directory of all disks
- the Windows system directory (and all sub-directories), usually : C:\WINNT
- to removable disks (floppy disk and CD-ROM drives)

You have NO Access to any other directory
------------------------------------------------------
You can copy files FROM Floppy disk to the directories on disk, to which you have access.
You can NOT copy files from disk to Floppy Disk !
------------------------------------------------------
type : EXIT to restart the system.
