Mike the duke,

Thanks for tip.I wish this would work. The problem is that no exe file will run. When I try to run any program using 'exe' I get a window saying 'open program with' and then a list of programs such as Adobe Elements, Windows Explorer, then Open Office and so on. Selecting these programs to get something to run does not work. 

When Windows XP boots up it says 'rundll32.exe missing' even though this file is in its proper place.

It appears that I need to edit the register but regedit will not run and I cannot find the register when I look for it using Linux from another drive.

regards,

first click on start menu >>run there type " regedit" and hit enter 
a window of Registry editor open up 

now use the keys " ctrl+f" 

in the box type "mountpoints2" 
hit enter 

once found, delete it
