XP prob maybe registry prob

HELP! i got a pop up from DXDLL saying something about a malicious intrusion
and then everything went pear-shaped from there! i was able to remove the
virus but now all XP faulty. im unable to restore, enter safe mode(pressing
F8 at start up just gives me a boot sequence), cut/copy and paste, enter the
internet (im using another computer to do this), etc. will i need to repair -
the xp is an oem and i dont have the disk, but i do have other xp disks? how
do i backup/restore program files without licenced disks for eg microsoft
office? is there a way of entering safemode via START and RUN to run system
restore (not allowing me to access system restore via START and RUN)? or is
there a program (that i dont have to pay for because im ineligible for credit
and im not falling into that trap anyways!) is it a registry problem? if it
is will i need to do a system restore? and how do i fix the registry?



all assistance greatly appreciated!

Hello,

See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/307545 - How to recover from a corrupted
registry that prevents Windows XP from starting

You will need your original XP installation disc
