If you still have your hardware test CD, try to boot your machine with it. If it checks out fine then boot of the OS X install disk and try to repair permissions on your hard disk. Hopefully that should fix your problem if not you could try archive and install.

Do a Archive & Install, it looks like OS X got screwed up. That message is a kernel panic, a O X equivalent of a crash on Windows.
Signature depreciated.
