xp hangs when booting - during the WINXP screen - blue bar stops moving

I am trying to figure out this issue :
when booting XP, the blue bar stops moving and the computer hangs. It
does not boot in SAFEMODE, but instead reboots itself.
I have taken out all of the USB devices, unplugged everything but the
HD (testing the power supply), but it does not seem to work.
I have tried to RECOVER and even reinstall XP - but it hangs when it
is on the screen saying "Examing 23434234 MB : atapi" and the hard
drive light stays on and does not change.
The computer was working previously and just recently has had problems
with booting.
I am not sure if this is an XP or hardware problem at this point
because XP seems to boot, but it hangs.
Would the motherboard be at fault here?
Since I can't boot it properly, how could I find out if the hardware
is causing the conflict or if it is something software related?
.
