Default XP SP2 hangs on welcome screen

I'm working on a machine with XP Sp2 which was infected by "about blank",
after I clean the registry and run the windows repair. Everything seems fine
except the system will hang on the welcome screen during boot up, but if I
hit the ctrl-alt-del then it will continue to boot with no problem.
Ocassionally, I will get a "page size too small" error instead. But again, as
long as it finally boot to windows, everything seems fine. Any suggestions?
