something seriously is wrong with ur registry
id suggest "repairing" ur xp install

boot from cd and choose the repair option

alternatively before the above u can try booting and following steps to restore registry
then when in windows backup ur current registry by exporting it

restart and if u get the same msg ... when ur IN xp this time, Import the previously backed up registry
and restart and check if it worked ..
