When my comptuer boots up from my c:, it says there is an error with C:\windows\system32\config\system

Right now I am running xp off my D: but I would greatly appreciate some help with this matter. I'm not sure how to fix it at all. It says u can use the xp cd repair function to fix it but I couldnt' figure out how to do. Help greatly appreciated.

To do this you have to boot from the XP Installation CD (configure your BIOS to do so). When it boots, you have to choose the "repair" option and follow the instructions.

Good Luck!
