After accidentally trashing the registry XP home will boot but can not find
either CD-ROM, the keyboard, or any network adapters.

I tried to reinstall Windows from the CD by booting to it but when I attempt
that it progresses to a point and informs me it can not find any hard drives
in the system and closes down.

How can I reinstall my OS?
