Dual o/s Question for Experts

I run Vista Ultimate and XP Pro SP2 unfortunately in my efforts to
install Nvidias new drivers I appear to have left Xp Pro without any
graphics drivers! So if I choose to run XP I get to the O & O defrag
screen and then I can hear other things happening but the screen never
changes and the same thing happens in safe mode.

OK I thought I will repair/re-install it however after it has loaded
the kitchen sink and just before the options appear it closes the PC
down and powers off!

So my questions are:

How can I restore some kind of video driver to my existing XP? or
How can I re-install XP?

I don't suppose you can get to the XP Boot menu...last known good
configuration...

Go into safe mode under XP, and set it for the generic VGA driver at the
lowest resolution. Reboot, and you SHOULD be able to install the drivers.
