Default [Pending] Computer Not Booting

When I woke up this morning, I heard the sound of my computer restarting.When I checked it, it was booting up and it led to a screen that said my comp is not able to startup regularly, I chose the option that it should use the last workable settings and it just tries to boot Windows and before it does it gives me the Blue Screen.

I can't figure out why my computer was restarting (I think it may have been a Windows update) but I don't know what to do, I'm kind of panicking here, should I try reinstalling Windows? or is there a better method.

Hi Spammy, welcome to PCHF.

In general, a problem with blue screens in XP is a sign of hardware or resource problems (IRQ conflicts, memory address problems of faulty hardware). What was the most recent driver you've updated, try booting into safe mode and uninstalling that driver.

I can't remember updating any drivers (this happened while I was sleeping, plus, when I try to go into safe mode my computer seems to freeze
