Need a little help here

I wasn't sure where to put this as I'm not sure what's causing the problem, but I'm hoping one of you can change that.

I usually leave my computer on 24/7 and haven't had any problems, but last night I decided to give it a break and turned it off for the night. Then when I started it up in the morning it didn't boot into Windows. I can only get in through Safe Mode.

I get to the Windows loading screen and it seems as if it's going to load, but then I just get a black screen. Here's the thing though, usually they loading bar takes about 9 or 10 passes before Windows boots up for me, but right now it's only getting to 5 passes and then trying to start everytime, and then it never does.

Any guesses as to what's going on?

Tried using the restore procedure to restore to a previously working state?

And sometimes Windows just chooses for whatever reason to shit itself. You may try using the repair options available to you when booting the Windows XP install CD.

Or you may just need to reformat and reinstall windows...

Well it did boot up after a system restore.

I've noticed some problems here and there though, mainly things starting going wrong when I installed Rainbow Six 3: Raven Shield. The game itself kept crashing my computer, it was the only thing that was exhibiting such problems, but everytime I rebooted after it crashed Windows wouldn't load the first go around, it would just sit there loading indefinitely. I'd have to reboot again every time without fail and then it would load without any problem. It just did that while trying for the system restore as well.

Kind of odd. Here's hoping I don't have any more problems.
