Restart Loop after installing Sp1a

I was having a small problem with pop-ups, and I posted my problem on
geekstogo.com. One of the Staff there told me to install Windows XP
SP1a.
So, I went to
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/updates/sp1/default.mspx,
and I downloaded the service pack. After installing the service pack, I
restarted the computer. And now it just sets itself on a restart loop!
It won't stop restarting!! I tried loading Windows normally, Last Known
Good Configuration, and in Safe Mode, and each time I as soon as the
Windows XP logo disappeared, the computer restarted. I did not back up
my data, and I need this data for work tommorow. I had fixed this once
before while installing SP2, but I had access to safe mode.


I found these links, but none of them addressed my specific topic.

You can view my original issue at the below link. It contains
additional information about my system.

Any help would be greatly appreciated ASAP, as I need my computer by
tommorow, and I did not backup my data...I learned my lesson about
backup...:(
