1 Windows XP CD can solve my problem.

Is anyone know...

When come to boot up Windows XP part, no matter what i choose(safemode,
normal, last,...) the message tell me c:\windows\system file is corrupt or
missing. Press R to repair with original CD.

When i put my Windows XP CD, and press R. It bring me to Repair Console. I
dont know what to do with this console, when i exit out of this console, it
already can boot into windows XP login mode.

Please tell me what had happen with this CD? Thanks you...i so curious.
