If your pc will not make it past the windows xp logo screen then it sounds like your harddrive is currupt.system restores not useful.try to repair bad sector of hard disk.

I would assume there is a problem with your Video Card Drivers. They are either corrupt or the incorrect drivers for your card. Try the following steps to resolve the problem:

Fixing the Windows blank Screen on System bootup:

1. Boot your PC in Safe Mode
2. One your system is up and running, change your Video Card Drivers to a default of VGA or sVGA and reboot again
3. If the System its booting up correctly this time around, Locate the Video Card manufacturer on the Web and then try to find and install the correct drivers for your Video Card

To resolve this behavior, set the startup type for Plug and Play to Automatic. To do so, follow these steps:

1. Click Start, click Run, type services.msc, and then click OK.
2. Double-click Plug and Play.

If you receive a Configuration Manager message, click OK.
3. In the Startup Type list, click Automatic, and then click OK.
4. Close Services.
5. Restart the computer.
