repair installation xp home edition

[Guest]

I have an eMachines (don't laugh) with XP Home Edition pre-installed. I
can't seem to find an installation cd and I'm not even sure if they sent one.
I need to do a repair installation, any advice?

Hi,

Seek out an I386 folder, usually under C:\Windows, then run winnt32.exe
within it.

Thanks for the help rick, I believe we're on the right track but I've got sp2
installed so I'm running into the problem of the version installed being a
newer version than the one I'm trying to run.

I believe I've got to slipstream but I'm not sure how to do it, any advice?
