XP Home dire slow boot up

My dads XP Home has taken at least 45 mins to boot, I tried to run AV & Adware Sw but gave up.

tried to boot up in safe mode but 15mins and counting

Also the processor is running at 100%

any ideas, reformating not an option.

Is it possible for only one account in XP to be affected, leaving others on the system untouched?

I've boot using my login and i've got in far quicker.
