If you can get into bios, change the boot settings so that the only boot device is the floppy drive.

Then boot the pc without a disk in the floppy drive. If you get the same behaviour you've got a hardware problem, but I'm betting this won't be the case.

Next, change the boot settings so that the only boot device is the HDD. I'm betting that after this you will go back to the same behaviour. If so, it means that the boot info on the HDD has been corrupted.

If I'm right so far, set the CD drive as the first boot device and insert your XP disc. Start up the setup from the XP disk, then tell it to do a repair install. At some point it will rewrite the boot sector and that should solve the problem.
