The stop error 0x00000024 indicate a problem of NTFS.sys, its the file system driver, but could be the drive itself is faulty, or other things such as heavy fragmentation etc.
Try this first, boot from your XP CD and choose R, it leads to the recovery console and type this command chkdsk /f /r it checks and fixes errors if any...
