You'll need the Windows XP CD-ROM. Insert that, restart the computer, and, with a pair of eyeballs, ask them to repair the existing installation. It should come up after you agreed to the license terms. Let me have a go at the key sequence:
1. If told to press a key to boot from CD, do that.
2. When the CD appears to no longer spin, press enter.
3. Press F8.
4. Press r.
The rest I am not sure as I never repaired Windows XP; only did a fresh install.
Good luck.
