All group policy objects under domain deleted

Not sure how happened but  all policys under the domain and in the group policy object folder are gone. problem has apparently been this way more than 1 week........all backups have them missing as well. Is there a way to restore them to sbs's original install? Also receiving an error from update services see the code snippit. I am not sure what has been done so far, I inherited this problem.

using the dcgpfix I was able to restore all but the sbsudate policies and since I did not have a second server to copy the polices over from, I followed the article and reinstalled the sbs monitoring and that took care of all of my problems. Thanks for all the help.
