What is the importance of the i386 folder in Windows XP?

The i386 folder holds the files used to install or repair Windows. If your computer did not come with recovery CDs (which in your case, I would expect not), the manufacturer put the necessary files in the i386 folder instead. You should not delete the folder; in fact, I would highly reccomend making a copy of it and storing it externally (such as on a flash drive or CD) just in case the original becomes damaged or otherwise unusable. To begin the reinstallation process, find and run winnt32.exe in /i386 (or winnt.exe from DOS).
