Windows XP Problem

I have licensed windows XP professional. yesterday I formatted my PC installed windows xp professional+SP2. Then I manually installed all current updated from website and after updating I installed all the drivers for the motherboard.
Today morning I updated the system with windows xp SP3. but when I restarted the pc it is not booting and giving this message:

"STOP:c0000139 {Entry Point Not Found}
The procedure entry point GdiGetBitmapBitssize could not be located in the dynamic link library GDI32.dll"

Can anyone help me sort out this problem.
Thanks

Alternately you can try to boot into safe mode & un-install SP 3

Try the following:

Enter the media of installation of Windows XP in the CD and run the Recovery Console of Windows XP (R press after the reading of drivers).

copy c:\windows\servicepackfiles\i386\gdi32.dll c:\windows\system32\gdi32.dll

the idea of copying the file after booting from xp cd sounds good. I will check this one.
And abt booting in safe mode I would to tell that I have tried to boot the PC in every possible manner but failed.
Now will try to boot with a CD and see how it goes.
Thanks
