Here is my situation. My PC will only boot in safe mode. I cab get it to boot
properly in safe mode, I ran my virus scan, defraged my drives, etc. 0
errors. When I try to restart my computer, I get the message, windows failed
to properly shut down. I then get the option of safe mode, start windows
normally, or last know good configuration. I have tried everything. I always
get back to the same screen unless I log into safe mode

If it won't boot in any mode then you'll need to try a repair install.
See this link: http://michaelstevenstech.com/XPrepairinstall.htm

Before you do anything make sure you have a backup of important
information. If you don't take the drive out and put it in another XP
or windows 2000 computer as a slave drive and copy the data from it,
then try the repair.
 
When your computer boots up press f6 several times until it takes you to a
window where you can tell your computer to boot up normally it is probably
the last selection

In his original post he stated he tried that.
 
Ok, I'll bite, WHY pound on the F6 key?
