I did not make a boot disk for it before this happened and I thought since I have the Windows disk I can do a recover but I have no idea how to do that. When I pick the recover option it just gives me c:\windows. I thought it would actually recover windows but nothing. She is so pissed at me. I might have to sleep downstairs if I can't get this fixed soon.

You will have to now boot up from Windows XP cd, and choose the repair console and when loaded and logged into windows.

You then type fixboot (followed by enter/return button)
