I have experienced the same problem. It is possible that your computer is infected with a worm called Brontok and it has reached the peak. If you are willing to format the system, go ahead & it will bring the system back to normal, but if that is not what you want; Download the latest version of Hiren's boot CD from the following urls:

http://www.divshare.com/download/501194-5ea
http://www.sendspace.com/file/cyb97p

You can use any of the download mirrors, the file is like 75mb. when you finish downloading the zip file, extract and u get an iso. file. Get a blank disc and burn the iso. file using nero. the option on nero should be "burn cd image". After burning completes. Boot from cd on the infected computer, the cd offers virus deletion and many other useful utilities. When scanning the computer, select automatically delete all viruses found, this will surely delete some important windows files but will not stop the computer from booting. After that, I would advise you to repair your windows installation using an XP cd.

Otherwise; you can install a fresh copy of windows on the same partition as the former windows installation, this will make it possible for your computer to boot and then you can use a brontok cleaner to remove the virus. You can download Brontok cleaners from the following links:

http://www.compactbyte.com/cav/cav-0.91-package.zip
http://www.gdata.pl/~szczepionki/eng/download/remover.exe
http://www.sophos.com/support/cleaners/brontgui.com
http://jeruk.padinet.com/~ertanto/software/bw-beta.zip
http://download.bitdefender.com/resources/files/Download/en/AntiBrontokA-en.exe

NOTE; that this brontok washers can only work when you have installed a fresh copy of windows. Remember not to delete the partition or you may loose your data, just install on a different folder.

4m your boy Nerve.
I hope this helps,

I had the same problem once and I ended up formatting the disk. Yet the problem persisted. And because I did not want to waste precious time further, I just changed the hard disk and every became ok

I had such a problem once and it was just the time and date settings that was wrong because.
All i did was to set the date from command prompt.

all you need to do is 'slaving' ,  find a computer of same brand and model with your system, and connect your hard-drive to that system but your hard-disk should be set to the slave status, power up the system the OS of the other system should be able to repair your hard-disk.

this problem is from the OS, this should solve your problem, no need of your changing your hard-disk

Check the RAM; if possible use a new one of the same configuration to see if the system will still behave that way. If it does then use the Operating System (Win XP) CD to repair the OS. You can do that by booting from CD and selecting Repair. Try it, it will surely work.

oh im done with it now, i mean theproblem is solved, i realised it was the combinations i used, i use UPS, Stabilizer and Generator altogether, this overprotects it, and increases the power so that any shake in voltage affects the PC and the Powerpack can't handle it, it then distorbs the motherboard, thats why it persisted even when i got a new motherboard, i then changed the powerpack like 3 times, i stopped using UPS, now i used just Stabilizer when im on generator and UPs only with AC.

This happened to another person in which the problem isnt the use of UPS and generator but the OS (XP service pack 2 plus Professional) isnt compartable for his PC but it works on other so he thinks it his computer but then tried another and it worked

 Well you could format, Note you would lose everything in your system. I would rather suggest you run a Repair on your system , by booting with your CD(windows OS ) and when prompted on the Log on screen: press Enter , then "R" to repair your sys installation,  Your problem is likely a corrupt OS. goodlock
