service pack? whats that?

does it have to be the XP disc that came with my laptop? Can I buy a one for this purpose?

Is the XP disc my only option? Cause its a couple thousand miles away...

I click ok, computer shuts down, and begins to restart. Now it gets bad. After approximately 7 seconds of the loadup screen with the little moving bar in the middle starts, a bright blue screen with a bunch of white text flashes for a half second,
