Start with these two fixes and report back as to your progress:

1. Insert the Windows XP CD
2. Click [Start] [Run]
3. Type the following command and press Enter
"rundll32.exe advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection C:\Windows\Inf\sr.inf"

System Restore core files should be reinstalled.

Second fix:

Windows Explorer, navigate to the "C:\Windows\Inf" folder
right-click sr.inf
choose Install
