GoBack Hosed My XP Machine

I can't boot into Windows or Safe Mode. I can boot to DOS with an XP CD. I was able to disable the driver that was causing the BSOD, goback2k.sys, but now I seem to have errors on the disk and have to run chkdsk /f Not sure if this will help or not, haven't finished yet.
I had to fixmbr earlier today to get it to boot, should have known this was coming
Is there way way to uninstall Goback from DOS?

UPDATE
chkdsk /f won't run but /p found no errors. Still won't bot into safe mode or windows. I get a BSOD with
an error message concerning virus and hdd's and controllers ( I ran a virus scan earlier when it wouldn't boot and was clean) I also get:
"Technical Information
***STOP: Ox0000007B (OxF7ACA640, 0xC0000034, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)"
 
Well I gave up on getting Goback out of there. It won't uninstall even thought I got the command and switch off of Roxio's site. I disconnected my main hdd and I am installing XP to the backup hdd. Once I get it going I will hook up the main hdd, get my files of off it and then format it and reinstall an XP back on it. What a PITA.
 
GoBack is a no-no with XP - period! It conflicts with System Restore. Roxio has warnings about that on their web site. Some OEMs that came with it have posted warnings to get rid of it before installing XP.
 
Thanks. It came on my NSW 2002 Pro CD that I got just for XP.

I am back in business but it took a lot of work and I still have more to do.
