Black Screen w/ Mouse - No CMD PRMPT

Okay, long story here. Just last night, my computer was working fine. I
ran Disk Cleanup, then I finally went to run Windows Update because it
said there was a new one. I started it and it ran with 'Creating a
restore point'. Meanwhile, I updated another program, and un/reinstalled
one or two things. I decided it was taking much too long and told it to
'Stop Installation', then Shut Down. Shut down hung at the 'Logging Off'
so I manually shut down. After restarting, I ran it in Normal Mode and
ran Glary Utilities, noticed the connection icon had a red X but I was
connected to AIM. I thought that was weird and restarted again. It hung
up again. Another reboot. I restart in Safe Mode and have it restart to
run Disk Check, 'fix all file system errors' and 'attempt recovery of
bad sectors'. Here's where my problem starts. It restarts as usual, and
I log in. Nothing. Just a blank black screen and the mouse pointer. I
can move the pointer but nothing appears. My desktop GUI will not show,
I restart in Safe Mode. Even Safe Mode restarts with black screen and
mouse pointer. I restart and run Startup Repair. No problems. Run System
Restore to a point a month ago. That doesn't work. I've sat in Safe
Mode. I tried CTRL-ALT-DEL and also CTRL-SHIFT-ESC. Task Manager refuses
to show. I can get the Sticky Key box to pop up but if I ask for Ease of
Access Center, I get nothing. I've even run Safe Mode with Command
Prompt recently, as others have suggested, and even Command Prompt won't
show!! What the heck do I do now? I would really rather not do a new OS
install if it can be avoided, I have a lot of important files on the
HD.

Try system restore to 1/10 - 10/1 , and if it works do updates again ,
separately .
