I don't think so ComputerDoc thinks that it can be done. Yes it is possible to repair without the original disk.
You can get a new XP Home disk and do a repair install. The best instructions on doing an XP repair install are here http://michaelstevenstech.com/XPrepairinstall.htm You can also get an automated repair done that will preserve your programs and data using Reimage. It costs a little bit but it's well worth the price. The details on Reimage are here http://www.askthecomputerdoc.com/blog/reimage-repair/
