boot loop problem

edited August 2005 in Science & Tech
Hi,
My computer is in a "loop boot" (it reaches the initial window screen, not the desk top and reboots).
It wont boot through safe mode, wont let me use the sfc in the repair mode (says that another program is accessing the h.d).
The only way i succeeded entering the computer is with ERD commander, but couldn't repair.
What else can i do apart from format?
o.s win xp pro pentium 3 700 256 ram memory.
Thanks,
Bendi

    I bet somebody says to boot off the CD and do a repair through that.

    Does safe-mode reboot too?
    I'd say do what Bothered said, do a repair install from the CD.

    bendi,

    Did this start after you installed service pack 2?
