Without further information it sounds like your os partition is corrupt -
re-install.
 
Hit tap the F8 when it starts to boot(once a second), when the menu comes up
enter safe mode, uninstall the patch or program that has started causing the
reboots.
 
or you have the blaster virus

It won't go that far. the splash screen shows up but then
restarts. I went as far as to add a line in the Boot.ini
file so that startup would make me choose an instalation.
it still will not allow me to see the advanced startup
options.

Try a repair install of xp.
Boot from the XP cd, and when prompted hit enter to begin setup. Press F8 to
accept the license agreement. It will then search and find your existing XP
install. Select it, and choose R for repair. Back up any important data
files in case something goes wrong.
