corrupt registry....and corrpution in WInXP OS DLL files....
use a tool called Tuneup Utility.....install and run Once Click Maint in that....also explore other options in Tuneup Utility...to defrag your registry, harddrive, clear files, remove Tem Internet Files etc....
download it from my website www.sureshayyar.110mb.com
Unknown Hard Error, if a corruption of the registry.
Run HDD diags and see if the drive fails, if it does, then the HDD is bad. You can try booting to you XP CD and running CHKDSK in recovery console.
Otherwise, reinstall windows
looks like ur computer is still infected .. try downloading and running trojan remover first and then run malware bytes antimalware .. try running Dial A Fix for windows XP to fix these Errors .. Hope things work fine for you ..
check your drive in which windows is installed.if it is nearly full you should increase it's size by managing from other partition.
this is a general problem which happens , due to registry issues , clutters , fragmentation problems and so on.
i suggest you 3 different ways to handle this.
1.if tou have a windows cd. just insert it and select windows repair and proceed to the instructions.
2.purchase any any good registry repair and computer optimisation software suchas IOLO SYSTEM MECHANIC ,REGISTRY MECHANIC, ADVANCED SYSTEM CARE etc.
3. to be cheap and effective, you may use trial version of IOLO SYSTEM MECHANIC.
these will optimise your pc automatically.

The cause of the freezing, or locking up, of your computer, is due tosome either corrupted or missing files. And more specifically, missing orcorrupted registry files.
You might have a bad version of the text mode driver for it.You can make your own slipstreamed XP install CD with my brief instructions to include SATA drivers so that there is no need for F6.
