I am currently on my laptop as my pc won't boot. Here is the situation, while browsing facebook the PC rebooted for an unknown reason. now when booting after the windows xp flash screen the computer reboots and loops back through the reboot process never getting past the xp logo. I am able to acceess the bios and all hardware is detected.

At this point I suspect critical windows files somehow have become corrupted (but i'm not sure). I have attempted a recovery install from the xp install disc but the c drive is not detected by recovery console. I am unsure how to proceed and any help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance.
