If a previous startup attempt was interrupted due to a power failure or because the Power or Reset button was pressed, or if you aren't sure what caused the problem, choose Start Windows

I tried all of the options multiple times and none of them worked. I have the Sony Vaio Recovery Kit but that doesn't include a Windows XP disc. I want to save the data on the computer because there is tons of important information. Someone told me that if I figure out how to access the recovery console I will be able to just reinstall the OS without deleting data. Does anyone know where I can obtain a Windows XP Media Center disc?
