CTRL - ALT - DELETE then click on Shutdown and select reboot option.

If you are wanted to re-install Windows XP you will need windows XP CD, just put in drive of computer restart it and should boot from CD and follow instructions to install.

If does not boot automatically then while booting up (in bios) press
F2 / ESC / DEL key

and in bios settings select boot from CD option first before HDD.

If you dont wish to loose everything on your harddrive just put the cd in and run the setup file and select upgrade when asked what type of install you want.

sometime sthe windoes stops responmding to shutdown so u need to press alt+ctrl+del then shut down -=> choose log off.. after u logged off u'll be able to shutdown or restart.. if this didn't work then alt+ctl+del and end process of explorer.exe and try to log off :)
