(is the graphics card an nvidia one, by any chance? I'm for ever having issues with nvidia and having to keep reinstalling the drivers.)
do you have the windows XP cd?
if so you can boot into recovery consul (for this you are going to need the administartors password if there is one)
you can then do a chkdsk on the drive. this may fix any corrupt files that you have. enabling you to restart your PC.
if you do have an XP cd, and if you need some help with this, let me know.
there is another option, but you are going to need the help of someone elses PC.
if one is available, you can slave your HDD to their pc. Boot up their pc and do a chkdsk from their PC.
hope this is of use.

I suggest a Windows "Repair/Install" that will reinstall Windows XP and retain your current files and programs.
