Black Screen with just cursor

[DuniCraig]

I did a system recovery with XP pro because i had lost the sound on my computer so i went thru all the steps and it was going smooth until the end of it. It said it was saving setting or something and it estimated 3 minutes left. I came back in like 10 mins and it had not changed eventually i let it sit for several hours it was the same so I rebooted the computer. now it boots up and get past the XP boot screen then after that it just sits with a black screen and the cursor even in safe mode and doesnt do anything . How do I fix this?

You will have to go through and let the XP Repair install finish.

it doesnt go back to the repair it just copies files then closes and then reboots.
