Clean Up Computer

I need help w/ a corrupt registry-I have a windows xp recovery disk but have never used it?

It started several months ago, my system 32 files pop up @ startup-so I ran a free scan of my registry and it shows over a thousand errors-the free downloads only fix a few of them in the trial version-I DO have a windows xp recovery disk, but I am afraid I will do more damage that good. I have tried to use the restore feature, but the only dates it will let me select are for this month only-the pc is 3 years old…I tried to toggle back a year or so, but the month on the calendar is stuck on December. (I was under the impression that restore points auto-set when new programs are added ???)
If I attempt to install flash on my secondary user accounts, I get errors saying a system 32 file can’t be found.
I have used the uninstall program from adobe and reinstalled it then ran c-cleaner, cleared cookies, I have rebooted, adjusted all user accounts to have admin. privledges, tried everything I can find online with no luck. Can someone help, please?
