Stuck on the "Welcome Screen" - Windows XP

That was it in a nutshell. I was sitting down with him while he did it. I'm sure he could have knocked off the applications one at a time & done a restart each time to isolate which of the applications it was. I was happy enough just to get it back up & running.
 
Windows XP will not load...

I have tried:
-booting in safe mode (it boots as safe mode, but won't go past Welcome screen)
-safe mode and and then last known working start up (nothing)
-tried putting in the Windows XP install disk and run REPAIR, however I do not know the admin password

I do have the orginial 6-disc recovery software, is this my best option? and will it ask for an admin password?

just re-install EVERYTHING?
