If you have sp2 installed then add the following in notepad and save it in Default C: disk in boot.ini name and restart the pc.

[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /fastdetect

U can also try the repair mode in win xp bootable cd....
