It would be great, if you press f8 when you start your PC. Pick Disable Automatic Restart on system failure, so that I can see the code on the 2nd line.
If it says 'UNMOUNTABLE BOOT VOLUME'.
You need to install Recovery Console (in XP Install) and then try fixboot & chkdsk
What you want to do is find your recovery cd's or a Windows XP installation disk and while booting strike the F10 key and boot from CD/DVD-Rom drive and press any key to boot from cd delete your partition and press enter and install Windows XP on your unpartitioned space and scroll up with your arrow keys to format in the NTFS File (System Quick) and then just reinstall some programs and you will have a working laptop again.
I had the same problem on my crappy comp (an HP built for 98 but upgraded to XP) and sometimes the BSOD blinks , then tries to reboot, goes to safe mode screen, but when I select safe mode, I don't have any probs, but running Windows normally, BSOD.
reinstall windows!
