I had this same problem in Windows XP and finally figured out what fixed it in my case. I couldn't boot regularly, safe mode, from the XP CD, etc. I had no way of getting into the system! The USB problems people have mentioned on various message boards prompted me to check my usb mouse out. It's an optical mouse so I could try it in another machine and tell immediately whether it was working (since it lit up). Unplugging it and plugging it in again while the machine was off didn't help. But when I got to the mup.sys line while safe mode was booting I unplugged the USB mouse and the machine continued to boot! I now have the mouse plugged in and it reboots with no problems. So, yet one more thing to try; unplug all of your USB devices after the mup.sys line appears. It may just continue!
