Will it boot into safe mode? Press F8 during the boot-up sequence to bring up the safe mode option. Since you are running so close to the minimum spec requirements I'm guessing it is a hardware problem, but its just a pure guess.

Thanks, I'll try that tonight. It gets to the Windows XP screen and then just goes blue.
