You can run System Restore from the Vista installation DVD. That's the
first thing I would try. Just put the DVD into your drive and bootup.
You'll come to a screen with the option "Repair Your Computer". Follow
the prompts and they will restore your Vista system files (registry,
etc.) to the last Restore Point. You won't lose any data - it's just
like using System Restore from within Windows. If that fails, then do
the same thing again, but this time it will go back to the "previous"
Restore Point. Keep trying till hopefully you'll get to a restore point
where the pc was working fine.
But if the above doesn't work you might be forced to totally erase the
drive and re-install Vista from the installation DVD. Which is too bad
since it sounds like the only prob is some problem program that is
trying to load at start-up. But if you can't even use Safe Mode to fix
it, then you might have to reformat.
Good luck,
Donk
