Urgent XP help needed Please

Hi, Please accept my apologies if I have not explained anything clearly enough but i am a little old on new lingo!!!

I am running XP from home and last night the following happened.

After being logged on for pretty much the full day, I had what seemed like a pop up come up. Although most pop ups are blocked sometimes a stray one gets through. I closed it and the next thing my screen went black and then showed me my wallpaper. After that nothing. I rebooted and it logged me on. I then was presented with all my icons, start menu etc and then about 10 seconds from it logging me on the same happened. All my icons, start menu etc disappeared. The only thing I noticed was that after i disconnected my internet it came up with the 'wireless connections available' box but this did not appear at the bottom of my screen as usual, it appeared at the top. I am able to alt, ctrl, delete but that is about it. I have tried booting with the XP disk and also in safe mode but I cannot access anything.

I am unable to run any kind of virus search as the icons will not stay there long enough.

I am unable to log on as the administrator either as the password which I thought it was is not working!
