Oh thats brilliant. Are you able to set first boot device to CD/DVD rom and pop in the disk.

When the Press any key to boot from CD message is displayed on your screen, press a key to start your computer from the Windows XP CD. 2. Press ENTER when you see the message To setup Windows XP now, and then press ENTER displayed on the Welcome to Setup screen. 3. Do not choose the option to press R to use the Recovery Console. 4. In the Windows XP Licensing Agreement, press F8 to agree to the license agreement. 5. Make sure that your current installation of Windows XP is selected in the box, and then press R to repair Windows XP. 6. Follow the instructions on the screen to complete Setup.

Have you tried restarting the computer and repeatedly tap F8 and then you should get a list of choices. Try last known good config or safe mode? Do either of these work? It may take a few tries and restarts to reach the menu choices.

You can try the tool ben however I am thinking corruption and possibly a repair being done on the operating system. I dont want to asume a recovery as all files would have to be backed up first and can take time. I would agree a virus may of caused some corruption.
