You may also have to do this through Safe Mode if your system does not run.
If this does not work: look for virus; run msconfig.exe and go to startup tab and uncheck each and restart or leave checked the items you knw that you want to start.
It sounds like msvcrt.dll is corrupted. To replace it go to Start|Run, type
sfc /scannow (space before the "/") and click OK. You may be prompted to insert your XP Reinstallation CD. That should replace the file.

Go to Start|Run, type regsvr msvcrt.dll and click OK. See if that correct the problem.

Denny,
I ran the regsvr command that you had indicated, but I got another error box stating:
"msvcrt.dll was loaded, but the DllRegisterServer entry point was not found. This file can not be registered."
What should I do next?
Thanks.

This KB from Microsoft describes your symptom but the dll is of a different type. The article is http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;822797
