my computer keeps restarting and XP won't load.

[Daniel_micon]

Hey something happened to my computer a few days ago. I haven't downloaded or installed any new programs for the past couple of months.

My computer was working fine, when suddenly it reset itself. When i now turn it on I am given a screen which asks me to choose from the these options if I want to load windows:

safe mode
safe mode with networking
safe mode command prompt
last known good configuration.
start windows normally.

None of these options work it goes to the XP booting screen then goes back to starting the whole process again.

Any ideas because i have no windows CD as it was already installed on there when i bought the computer from the store. I also have a lot of important work on there that i don't want to lose.

Can anyone help me please? :?:

If nothing helps you should find the setup CD and then follow these steps to recover registry.
