You can go to Start-Run and type in MSCONFIG and go to the Startup tab and remove some of the stuff from starting when you first boot up your computer.  Then restart and it shoudl go a little quicker...

Try to do a windows repair by booting from a windows xp cd.  Then continue with a windows setup and do a repair when it asks you to.

Bootup in safe/diagnostic mode to see where the problem lies. Might be something which has recently been install which fails the system (is included in startup boot).\nIf possible, could restore the system from a previous restore point. Could check the Autoexec.bat and config.sys files for signs of unwelcome inclusions.

Dear friend that is very easy way but u have to be very careful for that because if anything goes  wrong then u have to format and reinstall OS. So 1st open the boot.ini file in notepad and change the 2nd line of the code and save it and restart system. remember copy the original file and make changes in some the copy ed file.

Have you tried altering the boot device priority in your bios ? Change it to set CD-Rom to boot first, then insert your setup CD.. To do so, press Del key as soon as your computer boots-up. On some computers pressing F8 would directly allow you to change boot priority\n\nP.S : Sorry if you already knew the above

It sounds like your antispyware program removed something you need. Do you have a boot disk? You might want to try booting with the boot disc, if it boots then go back to the antispyware program and it usually gives you an option to undo removals. Just start putting removed spyware untill it will boot. If you don't have a boot disc, you can redo your boot drive, I don't have the information here for that. I would have to look it up.

Check your start up programs.\nSTART > RUN > type MSCONFIG > STARTUP uncheck things you really do not started at Boot up.

Hmm think maybe you deleted an important sytem file like startup.ini or something. Asking for the disk means it wants a floppy. I would check the BIOS settings and make sure it is booting to the hard drive first, then try to start in safe mode by pressing f8 while it boots (if it gets that far) Otherwise sounds like you need to reinstall the operating . It probably wants a boot floppy, use one if you have one.

which motherboard are you using? Can it be configured. It it is IBM compatible, hit Del before your computer starts. On the bios setup, choose your hard disc as the first booting ware. I think your problem will be solved.

Hit f8 continually in startup. If you get an option to restore system to previous time accept it. starting up in safe mode should work.

OK HERE'S THE DEAL.REBOOT COMPUTER AND HIT F8 BUTTON REPEATIDLY UNTILL YOU GET A PROMPT ABOUT BOOTING IN SAFE MODE OR NORMAL MODE.\nSELECT SAFE MODE AND LET THE SYSTEM BOOT.\nON THE FIRST POP UP WINDOW YOU SEE WHEN BOOTING HIT NO.THAT SHOULD TAKE YOU DIRECTLY TO SYSTEM RESTORE WINDOW.\nCHOOSE A DATE PRIOR THE PROBLEMS YOU DESCRIBE.\nTHATS ALL!

in your bios, do you have the cdrom set to be the first boot device?. try that

When the computer is booting up press delete until you go into a blue screen with writings. Thats your BIOS. In the second option look for boot sequence. Have your computer boot from cdrom as the first device. Then you should be able to boot from the cd. I dont know exactly what you are trying to do but thats how you do it. Maybe you trying to re-install windows? Well, anyways thats how you do it.\n\nGood Luck
