XP Does not load!!!

I didnt change anything on my computer and I turned it on and it loads 3 or 2 bars of the windows XP logo and freezes. I tried it in safe mode and safe mode works... I reinstalled the video drivers that didnt work. Any Idea whats wrong.

NVidia GeForce4 Ti4200
AthlonXP 2200+
Sound Blaster Audigy MP3+
256MB Ram

Would need more details... possibly software installs, updates, etc. If you can boot to safe mode, try a system restore to the last time that it ran fine.

Did the problem appear after you installed something?
How long have you had this machine?
Perhaps is a hardware issue... Just a guess.
