See HERE

After a Repair-Reinstall, you will need to reinstall the Microsoft Critical Updates, plus any other updates you require.

Edit your post and remove the service tag or your post will be removed from the forum. That violates the forum rules.

While you're editing, add some more info about what you want to do. You cannot repair Windows with the Resources disk. You must use the disk for the Reinstallation of Windows Xp. Boot to that disk and select Repair.

Have you tried using System Restore to a date before the problem started?

To repair XP, you will need the Dell XP reinstallation disc.

If you are the registered owner, a disc containing the factory-installed operating system specific to your system can be ordered from HERE.

Without the reinstallation disc, providing the factory installed hard drive has not been replaced, you could use Dell's PC Restore by Symantec utility, this restores the computer to it's FACTORY SETTINGS.
