"file asms is needed for intalation" somthig like that and gives a path where
it must be. the path is glogaldevice\root\cdrom0\i386 what is wrong? i tried

You can't do a repair of xp with the SP2 cd,to repair,you'll need the original
xp cd.When doing this repair,all updates to xp are lost includeing SP1 and
SP2,
all settings and software stay intact.
