I might have been the person who posted the same type of
thread.
As Carey has posted the info for the Repair Install, I
will say that this does work...
However I had to go that one step further and follow the
instructions for the Crashed XP...

_toot.htm
One thing I did in advance was to backup the Restore
Points folder contents to an alternative location before
starting.
After which when it was all done and said I did reproduce
an active OS however I had some problems running the new
V5 Windows Update site and even hit the TechNet chat line
to see if they could help resolve this.
The problem was that once my system was restored to a
point that was acceptable, once trying to hit the update
site, it would not load the update exe for the V5 website.
I ended up having to (after several hours of
troubleshooting) restoring it via Ghost, which way back
when I loaded this syetm I had also Ghosted it. Once I re-
Ghosted the OS everything ran fine as per the Win Update
site, I dared not try to push the restore point after the
fact....
