Hold the F8 key when it boots. If it gives you a boot menu, choose safe mode with networking.
If it boots, click start, run, type in msconfig and press enter. Go to the startup tab and disable all. Reboot. You will get a message that the startup was changed. Don Not return to normal startup. If it works, then one of the programs in startup is causing the trouble.

It sounds like the MBR is shot. Here are two things to try:

Boot w/ a boot disk and run fdisk /MBR Then try to boot it again.

Remove the drive and connect it to another PC through a USB port. You maybe able to salvage what you want and reinstall.
