Please help !!!!!
Okay so here is the deal. I was on my computer (as usual) and I kept trying to open Safari (which I have been using for months) and it would continually shut itself down.

Now my automatic reaction is "My computer is being dumb, lets shut it down." Oh boy, big mistake on my hand.

Now my computer is booting up, showing the splash screen and then giving me this black page with the cursor that I can move.

I have a custom built computer and I aquired my copy of Windows XP Professional through my School Alliance MSDN account. Well, Microsoft tech support is useless unless you have a few extra bucks in your pocket.

I've tried everything. Last good known, Recovery, Safe mode. I've googled every possible solution !!

I just need it to let me get onto so I can get all my stuff and swipe the thing. Next time I'm doing regular backups !! We all learn from out mistakes right ?

Please please please please please !! Help.
I will be eternally grateful !! <3

Do you have another computer that you could plug the drive into and retrieve your data from?
