Find your windows os disc.
>put it in the drive
>set disc to boot first/hit delete/f8 or whatever and select the disc drive
>when windows gives you the option, say repair.
Problem should be fixed. If not, post results.

Only other choice is to find someone with the same OS and to use theirs...or...
use other *cough* methods to get an iso and burn it.

You can find several Recovery Disks online (even from Microsoft) that have the repair utilities on the disk image, but nothing of the actual operating system itself.
