ok, i need some help with my system. I downloaded a free video converter to change the types of video like flv to mpg or something like that. When i downloaded it, i think it overrided some of xp's files. When ever i boot my computer the bar at the bottom doesn't show up. A little icon comes up saying i need to insert my windows xp service pack 2 disc. i dont have that so i wondered how i would fix this. i tried system restore but i guess i didnt give it enough space and it only had a restore for yesterday and it was messed up yesterday too. any help??

Have you tried to going into SAFE mode on boot up to do a System Restore? I think the screen gives an option to reutrn to known good last setting ( or something like that)
