Repairing half of a dual-boot setup

Although my general opinion of XP remains somewhat negative, I have it installed
on at least two PCs, due to game developers' choices not to support W2K. The newest
PC's W2K has suddenly begun throwing BSODs during the startup (bad image checksum).
This followed a recent visit to Microsoft's Updates page, and a security update for
MPlayer (I think, but can't recall for certain). WinXP still works fine, but I can
imagine that after I've run repairs from the W2K CD to sort out whatever went wrong
there, I'll have a problem with the boot menu, or with XP itself, will I not?
Anyone here had to do it lately? Am I right or wrong? Is it simple enough to fix?
Thanks.
