What was wrong with it to begin with?

A failed installation that causes the screen to shut off....usually indicates a bad motherboard.

thanks for the reply
It all happen when i was installing a Norton Internet Suite 07 when it was finish it seem like the software has given the computer a Trojan (DON`T KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS) so i desided that i was going to reload XP on it to get rid of that problem.

Norton's great for testing your computer's ability to crash...become unstable..and otherwise useless.

Try removing all partitions during your XP setup...create a new one, and start from there.
