xp splash screen doesn't end

[roshi]

Ok, so I installed the IE6 SP3 (?) update and Window Media Player 9, but I didn't restart my comp, that was yesterday. I also installed Illustrator CS and still didn't restart. I let my comp on during the night to download stuff and today, when I opened a .PDF file, acrobat reader crashed, along with Window Explorer crash, so I clicked "Don't Send" but the Windows Explorer kept crashing so I restarted.

And then, at the Windows XP Splash screen (with the loading bar), the loading didn't stop, I couldn't get to the login screen, I restarted and I could enter in Safe Mode, Safe Mode with Networking.

Any ideas/solutions?
And NO, not the "Last Known Good Configuration" because last time, it roll-back my registry and I had to reinstall windows
Also not the system restore, same thing happened.

Thx

Boot into safemode and uninstall those products. Report back with results of attempts to boot into normal mode. 🙂

ok, i think i figured out the problem and it's microsoft office 2003
is there any way i can uninstall office (windows installer .msi) in Safe Mode?

UPDATE: It's NOT because of Office 2003, the problem was Alcohol 120% with the virtual drive mounted, I removed the image file from the virtual drive, tried to reboot and it worked!
