Your post isn't descriptive of problems or issues you may have encountered
that led to your current problems. A couple of thoughts off the top might
include virus infestation and / or malware / spyware problems.

If you have run scans to ensure you are free from viri, etc. you might want
to consider doing a repair install. Directions for that process are here:

Subject: [PCBUILD] XP won't completely boot up

I have been having problems with my XP professional completely booting up.
It will look like it is but some of the icons will not be on desk top and it
won't finish booting up.  I also get the message that windows explorer and
Dr. Watson has a problem and must close.  I can boot up if I first go into
safe mode, set up Scan disc to run then when it runs it will boot up ok. Can
some one tell me what I can do?
