Deleted Win 3.11--then Undeleted files--NUTHING!

Oops, I deleted files from win 3.11 because I never use it. I added a batch file to my autoexec.bat to boot straight to wordperfect 5.1; The computer has since been running slower.  I wonder if I deleted a file himem.sys???  Well, I tried undelete, now the system boots, and goes NOWHERE.  Do I have to reinstall Dos and then Win 3.11? Will reinstalling Dos, replace those missing files, without forcing me to REFORMAT?  I'd rather not reinstall windows, if I can, I'd like to just replace the files that are needed to keep the system running at the best speed it can.  The computer is only a 386 and it's just used for wordprocessing.  I need to get this working by tonight! ACK! It's almost Monday!
