If you can not boot into normal Windows mode or either of the Safe Mode options, then the only recourse is to:
1) Boot with a CD and disinfect from the CD: Avira AntiVir Rescue System , How to create a BitDefender Rescue CD , or Kaspersky Rescue Disk
2) Pull the Hard Drive and install it as a slave so that it can be scanned when it's not booted to Windows
3) Reformat the Hard Drive and reinstall XP
