Win2000 msi VS. XP Problem

[msnews.microsoft.com]

How do I re-install MSI on XP?

My XP MSI files were damaged, so I uninstalled them. When I went to
download new MSI files I could only find versions for 2000/NT and Windows
9X. Now, I can't install ANYTING on this XP system.

The Microsoft website states that XP comes with MSI and there is no specific
download for it.

How do I re-install MSI on XP?

Thanks,

CAM
