Server continues to Restart after installing sp2

I recently installed sp2 on my server 2003 file server. The install went flawlessly. When I was prompted to restart the server after the install, the server just keeps starting to load windows server 2003 and then restarts. It does it in safe mode as well. Help me get this back up and running. Thanks in advance, Bob

Try using the Win2003 disk to repair the install.
If you have some sort of image or ghost of the Windows drive, then use it.
You are basically stuck especially if you can't get into safe mode to uninstall SP2.
The last option would be a clean install.

Good luck!
