Hello I put a new msi mainboard, cpu, ram and first I had the wrong ram in that was incompatible. Now I have new ram that is matched to the mainboard got it all hooked up and now it will go right to the loading windows screen and then the loading bar will stop and the computer will restart. I called technical support and they said it could be corrupted windows files from the bad ram. How can I fix windows? I tried loading the windows cd but I dont know what to do in the recovery console, and I need to keep the files on my hard drive because it has my business on it. Any tips on how to fix windows?

I have windows xp home. The motherboard is msi H61M-P21 B3, the ram is G.Skill DDR3 1333 4096mbx2

I dont have to option to repair an existing windows installation it only gives me the option to delete or create a new partition.
