Shawna, do you have a WinXP CD or a Recovery CD? If you have a XP CD
you can do a Repair or Clean Install.
If you have a Recovery CD then that will return you to the original
WinXP that was on your computer when you purchased
it. Either way you should first save all your important files, settings
and data. To get more info on a Repair or Clean Install
check here. http://www.michaelstevenstech.com/XPrepairinstall.htm
To do a Recovery your best source would be the Computer
Manufacturers ( Dell, Gateway etc ) website.
