Thanks for everyone's help with this. Finally resolved it.
The root cause was a virus called w32.magistr.39921.mm it seems to be awakened
by SP4 such that on the first boot after applying the pack it starts killing
your HD on a sector level. I was lucky I didn't lose more data.
You can be sure the client will have wished he had bought an AV package when he
gets my labour bill!
thanks again for the help.

Need help guys
Service packed a server 2000 box to SP4, no problem. Installed Symantec
antivirus small business edition, client install.
Now the machine boots up but I cannot do anything, the desktop appears and I
can move mouse but not click anything, also get the error at logon 'system log
is full'.
Tried safe mode boots but have same problem.
Please save my skin guys, any help is MUCH appreciated before I get fired on
Monday.
