Blank screen after XP splash screen

I can start in safe mode no problem, but I get a blank screen after the XP splash screen in normal mode. No problems listed in the device manager. I tried disabling my most recently installed device (firewire). Nothing. What else should I be trying?

Go into safe mode, and run SFC /SCANNOW from the Start menu (note the space between C and / ).
This will scan and rebuild all system files which in turn should solve your boot problem. Good luck.

Thanks, but for some reason I don't think the scannow worked. Nothing really happened -after a split second the window went away. I tried restarting and I have the same problem.
