Hello Steph,

I'd suggest running XP's System File Checker. Place your XP CD in the CDROM drive. (If setup pops-up just close (exit) that window).
From XP menus, select "Command Prompt". (or from Run menu, type
CMD <enter>

in the command prompt window type
SFC /SCANNOW <enter>

That would get System File Checker running, and recheck your versions of Windows system files
