We lost power at our Windows XP device received updates. How can I recover my machine?

Last Thursday my Windows XP machine was receiving automatic updates when I closed the computer.  The screen says not to turn off our machine until updates were complete.  We lost power before the updates were complete.  The next time I logged on our 'User' account and it does not have our wallpaper can save anything.  Nothing was in 'My Documents'.

It's looks like it has created a new account.  In Windows Explorer, I see that 'My Documents' was really under the account "user-B2760D6ACA".  This isn't an account that was there before.  There is always a 'User' account, but connect brings you this new account.  How can I recover my mahcine so that he can come back as it was before the automatic updates to occur?  I tried "System Restore" option, but the sooner I can get back to East after Thursday (when the crash occurred).

Hi JatwellZZ,
 
Start in safe mode and check if your user account has no problem.
For more information, see:
If the same problem persists, connect to the built-in Administrator account in safe mode and create a new user account.
 
The default built in Safe Mode administrator account appears as administrator when you connect mode without failure.
To create a new user account, see:
