Reformatting XP help.

My boyfriend was trying to reformat his dad's computer, and he did just that. But, when he restarted the computer and turned it back on, the icons didn't appear nor did the taskbar, then it would abruptly log him off from windows and bring him directly to the start up menu log in screen. Before I was going to start helping him fix it over the phone, I asked what kind of installation XP disk he was using. He said the same one that he used on his own computer. I told him that I thought you could only use one XP disc/product key, per computer. I'm wondering if this is the problem or if it may be something else. I'm also wondering if there is a way to get back his old operating system or to fix whatever he did. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

The answer from VopThis at D-A-L is correct.

You're probably best off following that thread as I am there as well.
