Now I can't use the file or the folders, or delete them,
rename them, move them, nothing.
How do I delete them? Please let me know if you've any
idea. Thanks.

Open the Command Prompt (DOS Prompt) (from Start, All Programs, Accessories)
and list the directories on you drive and rename the directory you need
something simple like XYZ. Then open this directory and rename the file
something simple like ABC. Then open them on XP and rename them to what you
want. This uses the old DOS system for renaming directory and file.
Or you can try booting in Safe Mode and see if you can rename the directory
or the file using XP rename or try to delete them.
