I try to reinstall it and now i can not get to repair it
is asking me as soon as boot up from CD. I get message

other way to boot up and repair XP.

This procedure requires the WIN XP CD.

Go into your BIOS and make your CDROM your first boot
device, at the same time, DISABLE second and third boot
devices, put your Win XP cd in the drive, save and exit.

Reboot.

When you get to the setup screen, make like you were doing
a fresh install and when you get to the "Select a
partition to install to" you need to select the
partition/drive that Win XP is ALREADY on, and click OK.

You will then be presented with a message along the lines
of "XP already detected on this partition, would you like
to repair?"

Click Yes/Ok to repair your XP without losing any data or
settings.
