Hi,

Load the Recovery Console by booting the WinXP CD and expand a new copy of
that file from the command prompt.

HOW TO: Install and Use the Recovery Console in Windows XP [Q307654]
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=307654

>From the C:\> prompt, run

expand X:\I386\csrss.ex_ %windir&\system32\csrss.exe

Then exit the recovery console, remove the CD and restart normally. Replace
"X" with whatever letter is assigned your CD drive.
