Blank screen with cursor

go into safe mode and just uninstall your graphic drivers and start again normaly

If the system will not complete boot, try the F8 boot menu and select safe mode and see if the system will boot to windows.
If the system boots to windows, you could have software issues or a startup item causing the system to hang at boot, try turning off the startup group items in MSCONFIG (Start, run, MSCONFIG) and see if the system will boot in normal mode.
If that is not help, hold the Fn Key while pressing the power buttong this should start PSA diagnostics on the system, see if any hardware fails

hi there,
in this case you mention that it check then system configuration and then goes blank,so therefor your windows XP installer is corrupted replace your windows installer.regards and have a nice day don't forget to rate me.

the easiest solution would be to re-install windows and hope it is not a hardware problem

Insert the original Windows XP "System Restore" CD-ROM,
and tell your computer to "boot" from it.

Does it boot, and get to a screen that asks you "do you really want to ...", or does it stop at a "blank" screen?

If it "stops", you have a "hardware" problem.
If it "asks", then either:
* your disk-drive has failed, or is about to fail,
* your installed copy of Windows is messed-up, and it cannot complete the "boot" process.

Take your computer to a computer-store, for more trouble-shooting.

Use ur xp cd and try repairing ... use the FIXBOOT command in the recovery console .... Not to worry much its just the boot.ini file which has corrupted ..

if u haven't overclocked it yet (goes easy to 2.4 to 2.6 some more, don;t go over 1.7V though) then you should single out the problem part by booting with: 1) try 1 memory stick only 2) safe mode 3) only necessary cards, possibly gr.card only now as we all know the quality of Microsofts products, try installing a fresh copy of your legal windows OS on any other disk or even the same with the separate installation option if you must. Simply, there is no better way to find the problem. Windows xp is rather funny lately with its updates... Good luck m8
