If you have another hard drive or another computer, make this drive a slave or just attach it with an additional SATA cable and plug the file you need back into your old main drive.

Since you just need your XP CD to access the recovery console, and in case you can't find your XP CD, Microsoft provides files for setup disks that include the recovery console, which you can find here, where you can find a link for a CD image of the SP3 setup disk. Unfortunately, if you have a version of XP earlier than SP3 the files are only available as floppy images. Even if you do have a floppy drive, it's much more convenient to use this software package to create an image on a CD (just follow the instructions in the readme; it's very simple).

Good luck~

yea boot from disc, if not possible. Go into bios and change your main drive to the slave and your slave drive to master and reinstall windows on that drive (assuming you have two - and switch the cables and jumpers around on the hardware too ofc). Then when you get on go into the other drive and try and remove the previous bad files.

If you have a second computer, laptop or anything. It's pretty easy to DL a XP iso and burn it to a disk. Most computers these days come standard with CD/DVD burners.

well since I have other things to do and don't know where the OS cd I just gave the laptop to my friend so he can recover it

He said he'll reformat it if there is nothing he can do

Fortunately I backed up all my ~~porn~~ files
