You could always install a second copy of Windows XP into a totally separate directory on your hard drive. It will then load this new copy of Windows up when the computer starts.
If you do this remember that the two copies of Windows know nothing about each other, which means you effectively have to reinstall everything. Even though your files and programs are installed, the Windows regstries are not connected. It will get messy after this, but at least your computer would boot.
