Default SP2 problems

Question: Against my advice, my foolish brother installed SP2. :P

He then rebooted, but the loading process won't get past the "Windows XP loading" screen [1].

We tried booting into safe mode, but we're having similar problems, where it just hangs.

So I booted from our XP pro CD, and I ran the "Recovery" operation. It then rebooted, and it got past the loading screen, and went onto a "Setup is being restarted........." screen; then there's a sudden BSOD and it immediately reboots (before I actually get to read any of the BSOD).

We don't really want to reformat.

Any suggestions? Thanks.
