Keep recieving NTVDM Kernel: Missing 16-bit system modules. Replace KEYBOARD.drv in system32 directory. When trying certain programs like FormFlow. I have run sfc /scannow with my OS disc to no avail. Does anyone know how to fix this without having to re-install xp home over my current installation. Or will I just have do it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Try running those programs in compatibility mode. Right click on the executable and select compatibility, win98/me as your system. Windows XP does not run 16 bit applications normally and this is likely where you problem is coming from, as Formflow is asking for a 16bit module. If you set the compatibility for win98, it will emulate a dos process that can run 16 bit modules.
