Winsys32 error, how to fix?

[Guest]

I've been having problems for the past few weeks of getting an error winsys32
dialog box when xp starts. I dont have the exact info on what is says but i
do remember it saying that two programs werent able to run because of the
problem.

I believe my problem first started when I left someone use my computer and
they tried to add a new windows startup screen and in doing that messed it
up.

I had to make a copy of the files on my laptop and boot from disk then
placed the files in my computer (please forgive that I cant remember exactly).

Since then Ive seen windows has made a generic winsys32 to run of my pc but
as Ive said above I get an error every now and then saying that it has to
shut down.

With all that being said, is there a cut dry method of letting windows
create these files to work the way my cp is intended?

Someone mentioned something to be about running my xp cd / recovery and it
would run itself to fix the problems?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks a bunch!!!
