Have you made any alterations to hardware or software just before you restarted? Having the original installation disk would be useful for repairing damage Windows, it seems like it's probably a driver issue to me. Do you have the Windows installation disk to hand?
OK, i must be tired. Of course you have it to hand... Repair install would seem the best bet, though I know you've just done an install... |

Is there any blue screen error?
Was it working before you reinstalled Windows XP?

it was working before I installed it, everytime I put the disk in. It just goes to the window loading screen, it doesn't say press a button to boot the disk, and no blue screen.

Go into the BIOS and under Advanced BIOS settings or Boot Priority or smoething like that chage the sequence so the CDROM drive is ahead of the Hard Drive.

When the pc first switches on, press Del (for most motherboards), to enter the BIOS. Depending again on the mobo, it'll be located in Advanced Bios Features, or something along those lines.
The boot priority is the order in which the pc searches to find a device it can load Windows from. Changing the first device to the CD-Rom will mean the disk will be read, and the setup will execute. See this image for what to look out for. |
