Hello Bruce,
When your computer boot are you seeing the following error message:
Windows File Protection
Files that are required for Windows to run properly have been replaced by
unrecognized versions. To maintain system stability, Windows must restore
the
original versions of these files. Insert your
Windows XP Professional CD-ROM now.
Is so, Windows File Protection (WFP) finds the file in the cache folder or
if the installation source is automatically located, WFP silently replaces
the file. If WFP cannot automatically find the file in any of these
locations you receive this message.
For more information on Windows File Protection please refer to the
following Knowledge Base article:

Sincerely,
Jeff Wade [MS]
