If you have a Windows XP operating system CD, you can go to START>RUN and type in sfc /scannow. SFC stands for System File Checker, and will scan your Windows XP installation for corrupt or damaged files. If it finds any file issues it uses the CD to fix them. It's best to have all other applications closed when scanning.
