Windows can't boot!

My computer totally won't start up. I recently got rid of a bunch of viruses, spyware, etc... Now when I log on, my desktop background shows up, but nothing else. I can't start anything, including the task manager. When I try to log on to safe mode, it lets me click on my account, but then it says: ntos.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. I don't have the windows installation disk because the version was quite old and now Microsoft says it's not valid. I tried to use Norton Recovery Tool, but all it showed was a vista-like loading screen, and then freezes. I have service pack 1, i had Malaware Bytes, a-squared, Spybot, and avast installed. I tried to use the Bitdefender and Kapersky boot CD, but the Bitdefender said it couldn't open the file system, and the Kapersky when gave me a blank screen. Any tips, or is my computer ruined?

Have you tried the system repair from the OS cd? That might help to restore some of the deleted files of OS. The files might have been deleted because of the viruses. So try to system system repair the OS.

But I'm not quiet sure if this method would work it'll try to fix the System. But it might worsen the problem because there might to much program that is running in your computer that it can't support it. So It'll be good if you star to salvage some file by installing the hard drive of the computer to other computer as a slave then start accessing it and get the needed and important file on it. And resolve it by reformatting method.

But still try not to lose hope there might be some other ways that I don't know. But still if you can't access some programs of the windows it'll be really hard to find a way to fix it.
