My computer worked properly, but since some time ago, sometimes, when I started it cant boot. Then, I have to reboot it and it start with booting. I use Xp OS. I havent viruses or spyaware (checked!), my memory, motherboard and hard drive arent broken (checked!). Mentioned above isnt problem. How can I recover boot sector (Im sure thats the problem)?

You are right. I had same problem and I solve it with recovery console. To run recovery console insert XP installation disk, then boot the system from CD, then enter recovery console (choose it from the options below), then type following command:
Fixboot C:
Assuming that C is windows partition, if its not type right letter.
