What do you mean by take it back in time?

System Restore should work in XP unless you have it turned off like me.

You should also be able to access it via the Help and support option on the start menu.

Look under Pick a task....

When you are on the 'restore point' screen can you click on the arrowhead to the left of 'January 2004'?
