Ouch. Any idea on what the new problems are?
I assume you mean XP's recovery console on the CD for the repairs right? Is the computer unable to start at all? Usually you'd use the recovery console only if you're not able to start up your computer via normal startup or in safe mode. Typically the things you'll use the recovery console are to replace system files with recovery system files in the windows recovery folder, or modify files in particular ways.
If you don't mind, I'd love to offer some help in regards to your problem. The least I could do is point you in the right direction.
