Default My Comps. fawked...

Screen is all messed up. Wont boot up normally, freezes. Can only use Safe Mode or boot with VGA enabled. I am running Windows 2000. Anybody got any idea how to fix this? I tried running the error checking. Still fawked.

format it and reinstall. once windows takes a dump like that, you never really seem to recover from it without formatting.
