Hi Mike,
I have done these steps on many systems. This is the process I have used
and it works:
Recovering XP using the Recovery Console (Line 333) right hand side
http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm
Recovery Console Fix for XP SP1 (Line 58)
http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm
In Recovery Console, change to the c:\Windows folder.
Type cd sytem32\config , and then press enter.
Type dir system , and then press enter.
Depending on your error message, use as follows:
Next type: ren software software.bak and then press enter.
or:
type ren system system.bak and then press enter.
Next type:
copy c:\windows\repair\software , and then press enter.
or:
copy c:\windows\repair\system , and then press ENTER.
Exit, reboot.
More info here:
To fix the "windows\system32\config\system file is mising or corrupt" where
Xp wont boot:
Go to Recovery Console and type:
cd system32\config
ren system system.old
ren system.alt systemalt.old
copy c:\windows\repair\system
copy c:\windows\repair\regback\system
exit

Error Message: Windows Cannot Load Your Profile Because It May Be Corrupted
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q318011
Create a New User or Restore the User Profile

Suggestions:
Right click My Computer, Properties, Hardware, Device Manager. Locate the
entries for your hard disks and double click each entry. On the Policies
tab, uncheck Enable write caching.
You will see a performance decrease because of this, but if the corrupt
registry/user profiles problems cease, then you'll be certain of the cause.
Logon to another account with admin privilege and run System Restore.
Choose the most recent restore point and SR should restore the user
hives.
Or...
Boot into safe mode and log in as Administrator. Copy ntuser.dat from
%windir%\repair to "Documents and Settings\[your user id]". Now do a system
restore to a point in time prior to when the corruption message began to
appear.
Or...
Relocate NTUserdat
Look in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows
NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList and find the profile you want to change and
then change ProfileImagePath to the ntuser.dat folder that you want to use.
You must manually copy or move the ntuser.dat file there.
