You mean MS Paint?

Uninstall and reinstall MS Paint in Windows XP

You require the Windows XP CD-ROM to reinstall the Windows components such as Paint

• Click Start, Run and type control appwiz.cpl,,2
  (or, use Add/Remove Programs applet, Add/Remove Windows Components)
• Double-click Accessories and Utilities
• Double-click Accessories
• Uncheck Paint and click OK, OK.
• Click Next.

Windows will now uninstall Paint brush. Now, insert your Windows XP CD in the drive and repeat the above procedure, but enable the Paint entry in the 4th step and click Next. The required files are extracted from Windows XP CD-ROM and Paint is now reinstalled.

You could always just try an alternative, There are programs that are free, and almost exactly clone MS Paint.

Your not going to be able to get paint back without the OS cd. See if you can borrow one of your friends or something.

If not you may want to try gimp its a bit more complex though

You don't need to reinstall windows or anything. Just download from the site..
