STOP: C0000218 {egistery File Failure}

My HP Pavilion Laptop running Window XP Home Edition cannot boot. Recently
it cannot boot and pops up following error:

"STOP: C0000218 {egistery File Failure}
The registery cannot load the hive (file)
:\Systemroot\System32\Config\Software
or its log or alternate. It is corrupt, absent, or not writable"

The system then dumps memory to disk and reboots and continues the same loop.

I will appreciate any advise on how I can recover from this error without
loosing data in my hardisk.
