You will have to do a repair install. The link below is to Doug Knox's great
site, thanks Doug.

I have done that, but once I hit repair, it asks me to pick the operating system. I select 1 then it just sits there. I know I am missing something.
 
Not meaning to be insulting but, did you press Enter after you made your
selection of drives?

Did you know that there are TWO REPAIR options in the XP setup - the one you
want is the SECOND one.
