computer will not boot

i have a dimension 4000, less than 2 months old. the other morning i tried to boot the system, here's what happened. the initial screen popped up, then the windows xp screen, then the screen went blank and i received a message box which stated Isass.exe-system error, below it said object name not found. i click ok, then it just starts the whole process over again. help me to get the system back up. i've tried re-installing the system , but it does not read any cd.

    I don't know if this will work, but it's worth a shot.

    Hey bobby, what u need to do is to boot up ur computer with a floppy, it won't work with a cd. U should have a backup disk provided or u could have made one. If u have access to another PC with XP u could make a floppy on that and use it on ur computer. U need to:

    -go to settings
    -control panel
    -add/remove programs
    there should be a tab with startup disk on it
    -click on it
    -copy it onto a floppy
    I can't be sure that it will be done like that but it should be close
