Windows Installer

I somehow...did something stupid...and deleted Windows
Installer which came with my computer that I bought last
February 2003. I cannot open any files that are Microsoft
Word, Excel, Powerpoint etc. PLEASE HELP!!! I hope this
can be remedied without taking the computer in. I am a
small business and these files are critical. Thank you...

Hello,

Try running an in-place upgrade of Windows XP. I have included a link
