Error Code: 0x80004005

I just installed xp professional last night as an upgrade from windows ME and
a short time later when I was updating my computer at microsoft update, it
froze up. I shut it down, started it back up and when it asked me for my
password to log
in, I got a message saying:"A problem is preventing Windows from accurately
checking the license for this computer. Error Code: 0x80004005."

I can't get into my desktop at all and all my email is in there under
microsoft office outlook. That is why I don't want to try and reinstall
windows xp.

Any ideas on how to qick fix this?
