Boot from your Windows XP CD into the recovery console and d a repair installation of the operating system. You may loose some settings but it should allow you to boot and have access to your programs and files again.

Does it even post? as in trying to read the bios? If not there is a jumper terminal near lithium battery that when switched according to motherboard manual, will reset bios.

Does it complete the POST (power on self test)? This means does the computer load past the memeory check and disk detection processes? It should give you some more information than just "boot faliure".

Your bios could be damaged, or, your harddrive is dead. Swap out the damged part in to another PC and try to accsess it. I dont hold out much hope though.
good luck
