Mc9090 does not have a battery door?!
You should try a reflash by SD card or Activesync, you will need access to support.symbol.com and possibly a service contract to access the firmware.
I've seen issues like this with a bad hard drive. When entering the bios it queries the hard drive first and it's got issues it can hang it up like this. If you have a spare try that. You can try to boot it without a hard drive to see if it gets past this. Some computers won't boot without a hd though. If you've got another computer you can look around online to make a flash drive bootable and use that instead of your hard drive. Lastly, get a new hd.
Here you can find links to both clean boot files for the WM5.0 and WM6.1 OS for the MC9090. If you need the full WM5.0 OS you can download it here. For upgrades to WM6.1 from WM5.0 fill out this form and BCTP will help you out.
The 9090 will continuously reboot when someone has cold booted it and has held the trigger down too long after the cold boot. What it's doing is looking for OS update files in the proper directory to do a system update. When it doesn't find them it just reboots again continuously.
To get out of this, cold boot it again but release the trigger right after you push in the battery.

Actually if it is continuously rebooting, it is usually because someone was holding down the trigger through a cold boot process. That's what puts it into this continuous reboot loop. To get out of it do a cold boot again (pop the battery part of the way out, hold down the power button and trigger simultaneously, and then push the battery back in while the power button and trigger are still down). But as soon as you push in the battery to the point where you hear it click, release the trigger. If you hold it in too long, the unit will start continuously rebooting.
