Restore to earlier

please?

I'm sorry but you'll need to get hold of an XP CD. You can borrow one from a
friend as long as it matches the version on your computer (XP
Home/Pro/Media Center retail/OEM).

Back up your data before you do anything else if you haven't already done
so. Then try a Repair Install. If the Repair Install doesn't work, then
whatever the "total c*ckup" was damaged your operating system beyond repair
and you'll need to do a clean install.
