this is a case of os corruption somehow..!!..may b a virus/trojan or hardware or software is responsible..
all u need is the os boot cd anyway..
probably now u got two way out:
gotosome cyber n download win xp pro sp2, using any bit-torrent client(likeutorrent) from torrent site (eg. mininova.org so on)..make a boot diskn try..
1) copy the file in windows repair mode or from any identical os n put it in place as stated above..
OR 2) reinstall os..
(totake data backups u gotta connect the hdd to another pc/laptop, for suchcases a hdd-case is available in the local spare market, it'll makebehave ur hdd to act as an external removable drive)..
this canalso b a symptom of faulty/defective of RAM..pen clean/remove carbon& or oxide formed on the teeth with an eraser n resit it..[it'll bmore prominent, that if itz cause by ram or not,..if during normaloperation, a Blue Screen appears/Memory Dump]
though, sometimes itz also caused by the m/b..
if once u can login, do the following:
hv a licensed and UPDATED antivirus installed (i prefer avg/kaspersky, , without updation a full version antivirus is useless)..
download, install n run microsoft kb890830..
