Corrupted or missing driver

Hi
My computer froze and on rebooting it a blue screen
appeared informing me that I had a problem with my
C drive. Eventually I was informed "INF file txtsetup.sif
is corrupt or missing status 4096". The keyboard on the
computer does not work and if plugged in the computer
will not boot. When I tried to roll back the drivers for
the keyboard there was no entry in the hardware manager
for it. I cannot bootup in safe mode and if I boot using
the cd drive with the windows xp cd the computer freezes
at startup. I have also tried system restore but again my
computer reboots itself. I cannot use dos due to the
keyboard problem.
Would anyone have a fix for this?
Thanks.

Go into your bios by pumping the F-whatever key at
Click to expand...
startup(my H/P is F1,My dell is F2,my barebones is esc
key)you may have luck with the esc key)you should be able
to use the key board in it(it should be plug and play,if
it won't work try a different one)look up the option for
plug/play and make sure its selected yes,then exit saving
changes.If it won't work still get you a keyboard that's
USB and plug it in,it'll work with that then first thing
you need to do is update and run you antivirus(I hope you
have one,if not get one from the microsoft update page
http://v4.windowsupdate.microsoft.com/en/default.asp
or update off the start menu,the 1,2,3 follow it thru to
step 3 computer associate has a good one free for a year
there,get it if you need to).
