If you do not suceed in safe mode try: start > run > msconfig. Check diagnostic startup and reboot. Uninstall the driver etc.

can you boot in safe mode?. If you can enter device manager go to Display Adaptors and uninstall the driver of your video card. Reboot and if OK search for the river version that you relaced with the new one. Even better, if you have the original driver disk use it to install the video driver.
If you do not suceed in safe mode try: start > run > msconfig. Check diagnostic startup and reboot. Uninstall the driver etc.
The only problem doing that is that I already attempted to do a repair installation of XP, so if I go into Safemode, it'll complain to me that I can't do a repair installation of XP in safemode. I've kinda hosed myself down...
Edited: I'm going to attempt to make a WinXP CD slipstreamed with SP2. If I don't have success, I'll have my dad put my hard drive in his machine so that I can at least get my files backed up if I decide to do a full format.
I appreciate those who have posted their comments on my issue. If anyone else knows something that hasn't been posted, please post your suggestions.
Thanks.

My computer is now working.. I reinstalled windows on new directory called C:\WINDOWZ and now have my old copy of windows with my origional C:\WINDOWS directory along with my new copy. I was able to access all my files and other settings without a problem.
Things are almost back to normal again
