This looks bad. Check to see whether you have a virus. Also check to see whether you have duplicates of notepad.exe on hard disk, one of which is bogus and comes earlier in the PATH than the true notepad.exe.

To check whether some of your Windows files are corrupted, open a command prompt window and type the command sfc. You might need to supply your XP installation CD-ROM for the check.
