XP Keeps Restarting During Loading of Windows
I have an XP machine which keeps restarting while windows is trying to load. It also restarts when I attempt to load in safe mode as well. This all started while I was trying to clean up a lot of viruses and spyware. I've attempted to fix it via the Recovery Console, but I don't think it's doing anything. After using the console I've attempted to start up the system, but the same thing happens. There is no BSOD that appears. Can someone help me out with this?

Boot up your system with the cd but when the first screen comes up asking if you want to do an install or r for the console pick install instead. Then it will detect that you have windows already installed and ask you if you want to repair it.
The repair install will basically reinstall windows core, but you'll keep any installed programs and all your data. Once windows is reinstalled you just do the windows updates and you are back to where you were.
CHKDSK /R
I have had this fix the startup blue screen problem countless times.
If that fails go ahead and do a repair
yep, i second that. repair loads are amazing, they've saved me multiple times when changing hardware
Good suggestion didnt think of that. Download memtest86+ and boot to it to check your ram for errors.
