nass, thanks for the help, but im trying to save my files, not
erase them

Boot from a BartPE or Knoppix CD - copy your stuff off (or rely on your
backups - you do periodic backups, correct?)

Perform a REPAIR installation. That should not erase your files, but
reinstall Windows XP...

Safe mode start looks like a frozen screen initially as you state. Give
the system a couple minutes to see if the startup completes. If no joy,
follow the repair process others have suggested.
