My hp lapzop with xp won't start in any modes.

[Guest]

Hello,
My laptop(hp pavilion dv5000) asks me in which mode i would like to start (safe or normal...), but after i chose, it repeats the cycle again and again. Before this, it didnt go to hibernation. I think these two problems are conneted somehow. Please help!

Try booting from a XP disc and select R for recovery. Then try to do a chkdsk /r to repair. If that doesn't work, go back in and try fixmbr to fix the master boot record, and the fixboot which writes a new partition boot sector.
