Then you should reboot with your Windows CD and do a "Repair". That will put Windows back to what it was after installing it (i.e. no SP or SP1). This is system-wise; it will not uninstall your programs or wipe your data.

Please do a backup from within Linux of your data. I cannot guarantee that the procedure will work, as I don't know what your problem is. It worked for me, though.
