I'm trying to fix a friends old compaq.  Has XP but no longer has the cd

After Compaq screen I get

We apologize for the inconvenience but Windows did not start successfully....

If I Select: Start Windows Normally  I get a loop back to the same screen.

If I select anything else, Safe Mode etc I get a whole screen of

multi (0) disk (0) rdisk (0) partition(1) WINDOWSsystem32DRIVERS .............

multi (0) disk (0) rdisk (0) partition(1) WINDOWSsystem32DRIVERS .............

multi (0) disk (0) rdisk (0) partition(1) WINDOWSsystem32DRIVERS .............

 

Then a split second blue screen then back to the loop.
