So as a first option I would backup all your Data and then start to play. If you mess up it doesn't matter.
First I would run System File Checker from the Run Box or Command Line Prompt all you need do is open the Run Box & type SFC click on Through and the run the application. You'll need your original Install or Recovery CD to restore any altered files and once that has run and you have rebooted you'll need to reapply all the patches & Service Packs that have become available since the original install. But if you have a problem Windows File that will fix it up.
If that doesn't work you can drop in your Original Windows XP CD and boot off that and do a repair install.
If you have encrypted your files remember to disable the encryption when you back them up or you'll need to save the encryption key.
But it's much safer not to save your data encrypted.
If that doesn't work your only alternative is to blow away the Windows Install and wipe the drive with a Utility like Boot & Nuke.
and then reinstall the OS & Software. This utility writes zeros to every sector of the HDD so it will effectively be a clean install and you'll have none of the data left over from the previous install to potentially cause you problems as even formatting the drive only writes to every third sector so you have 2/3 of the drive untouched and the possibility that some corrupt data can come across from the previous install.
