Ive had this exact same problem before, and finally recovered it with one solution. - Re-install the operating system using the recovery disk or the windows xp disk.
But before trying that out, first, if you can try and back up your most important files like daveskater said. If it takes, say for example a minute or 2 to even open up My documents folder, than it is definately either a virus or you havent defragmented your computer for a long time. Defragment the hard drive first if you can. Hope this helps.
