Sounds like a major mess to me
Wait and see what others might suggest, but it sounds like you need to format your hard drive and do a clean install of Win XP.
Did you have a dual boot system? That "Microsoft Windows" you used to have sounds like eg Win98.
A few specs about your PC would be useful. It may be too old/weak to run WinXP.
