tried sticking in the windows cd and doing a repair? Might just be something corrupted and the CD can fix it.

This happens quite often. An error happens and the computer is set to reset automatically. Your best bet would be a repair.

If that doesn't work and you want to save your half completed assignment, stick it as a slave in another PC and copy it across.

Windows may be corrupted, do a Windows Recovery Installation

I'm jumping on the "do a windows repair" bandwagon.
