xp sp2

[The Maine Loon]

Have a Dell with xp and sp1 installed. Autoupdate downloaded and installed
sp2. Now every time I boot up, I get a message that there are corrupted
windows files and to reinstall xp from disk. However, it won't let me do it.
I tried xp system restore but it won't let me restore from any date. Keeps
telling me to pick a different date. After "OKing" the startup error message,
everything seems to run fine however. What's going on! How do I get rid of
this startup error message seen since the sp2 update.

Tnx, The Maine Loon
