Cant use sfc. SourcePath missing in registry

[LM]

Hi all.
I tried to run sfc but it cant find a setup dvd. I found a wepsite
which said that when path from which Windows was installed has changed
these kind of problems might arise.

I dont want to setup Windows XP pro sp2 again.

The problem is how to make Xp find its install disk? Expecially when I
tried to add that path in the registry, it didnt help. My Pc boots so
it didnt make it worse either.
