First, unplug and open the case. Check all connectors. Make sure the RAM and the cards is all the way down in their slots while you still are at it.
If you cant load Windows. Head into BIOS by taping the "delete key" or F1 or F2 keys, at the very first screen you see when booting up.
Then navigate with the arrow keys, to a meanue, called "boot order"
There, set the DVD or CD drive as "Boot order no.1".
Then save the setting in BIOS before you leave. Drop your Windows CD into the CD or DVD drive.
And then do a repair installation of Windows.
Read how this is done from the link below:

This wont remove the other programs or games you have installed. Just the service pacs and the Windows updates you have done.

Sounds like a hard disk thing - Make sure your ide/sata connections are secure - if problem persists, boot off xp cd, enter recovery console and run chkdsk /f (or chkdsk /r) c: to repair any errors that may have formed. Also try a fixboot and fixmbr while youre there. If error persists, follow repair windows installation goranpaa suggested.
