There's no obvious reason for this to start happening, everything was working as normal, and still does when I manage to get the system up (which happens about once in four attempts). When I start up, I see the POST screen, and it says loading Windows XP and then it stops, and hangs, and I have to restart manually! What's going on!?

There's no way to tell with so little information.
Did you add any new hardware to the system recently? If you did, try uninstalling (and unplugging) it and restarting to see if the problem persist. Did you install any new system-related software recently, particularly new drivers for key components? If so, try uninstalling them, etc.
