Take some advice, back up your important data and install
Windows XP from scratch. It's not a good thing to install
one over the other. Too much gets crossed over and causes
even more problems. If you have OEM versions of the
Office software you should be able just to reinstall it
once you have XP loaded. Just make sure that you have
your product id's available before you slick and reload.
Good luck.
