I had GRUB installed, and it was giving me this error after the POST screen:
GRUB Loading stage1.5. GRUB loading, please wait...
And it just stayed like that forever, I tried the fixmbr command from the XP repair disk.. but didn't fix anything.

Do you actually have any partitions? It could hang there if you deleted all of your partitions.
