The error that generates this bug check usually occurs after the installation of a faulty device driver, system service, or BIOS.
If you encounter bug check 0xA while upgrading to a later version of Windows, this error might be caused by a device driver, a system
service, a virus scanner, or a backup tool that is incompatible with the new version.
I suggest going back into the Recovery Console and disabling any Norton services. This includes the system works and anti virus.
Additionally, disable any other third party (non-Microsoft) services. Try booting again after disabling the services.
LISTSVC
The listsvc command lists all available services, drivers, and their start types for the current Windows installation. This command is useful
in conjunction with the disable and enable commands.
DISABLE
disable servicename
Use this command to disable a Windows system service or driver. In the command syntax, servicename specifies the name of the service
or driver that you want to disable.

If you are still unable to boot up you could uninstall XPSP2.
Follow the following article: "How to remove Windows XP Service Pack 2 from your computer"
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=875350
Start by going into the Recovery Console and changing directory to the
C:\WINDOWS\$NtServicePackUninstall$\spuninst directory and type:
batch spuninst.txt
Let the uninstall complete and boot into Safe Mode.
From Safe mode you should check the following Registry Key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\RpcSs
On the right side of the viewing pane, right-click ObjectName, click Modify, type LocalSystem in the Value data box, and then click OK.
Once you have booted up normally, run the Add Remove Programs and uninstall XPSP2 again, now from the GUI, if possible.
Some other things to consider none of this works is to do a "repair install"
