There are only two possibilities

OS corruption or hard drive is failing.


what did you try till now?

Can you boot into safemode?

Did you try running chkdsk

Your harddisk is failing it seems,try this

Insert your OS cd

You should be asked to press a key on bootup,if you do not get this option

press f2 or del key on bootup which wil lead you to BIOS

make sure your first boot device is changed to cd/dvd drive,then restart

press a key on bootup

that should lead you setup menu

I guess that your OS is xp

Now press R key on the setup menu that should lead to recovery console

enter your administrator password

now run these commands

chkdsk /r

fixboot

after running it restart and check
