Eh, I've tried starting them from both at this point, and it still continues to go back to the same error code. I have no idea at this point!
I've tried everything at this point! I think my hard drives could be bad!

Error Message:
Windows could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt: \Windows\System32\Drivers\Isapnp.sys.
Translation:
This is another one of those messages that points directly to the culprit. ISAPNP.SYS is a device driver WinXP needs to function properly. The message is telling you this file is either missing or damaged.
Most WinXP files with a *.SYS extension are Windows device drivers that reside in the C:\windows\System32\dRIVERS folder. This folder is one of the most important in your entire hard drive. If any of these files go AWOL or are damaged, WinXP will report serious errors and you won’t be able to get your system started until you restore a functional device driver.
Solution:
Start the Recovery Console. If the ISAPNP.SYS file is still in your C:\Windows\System32\DRIVERS folder, the driver is corrupt. Rename the existing file and copy a new version from your WinXP installation CD. If the file is missing, then all you need to do is copy the file from your WinXP CD to the C:\Windows\System32\dRIVERS folder by typing the expand command: expand [CD drive letter]:\i386\isapnp.sy_ C:\win dows\system32\drivers\isapnp.sys.
