Blank Screen, using safe mode

Here's the deal. I installed a game on my computer and restarted. Well the computer wouldn't restart and went into a blank black screen. Automatically i think theres a conflict. So i do the safe mode (F8) thing. I Chose the option: Last Known Good Configuration. Started and went up fine. After this i uninstalled the game and decide maybe it'll work this time and installed the game again (a foolish mistake). I started up again and i ran into the same problem. So i automatically did the same thing as before. This time it's not working. So i chose other options besides Last Known Good Configuration. None of the options on the safe mode work! Well i hope some of you people be able to work this problem out and figure out a solution, so i may continue using my main computer. Thank you

P.S.- its a windows XP

Are you sure the motherboard chipset drivers are installed? If a 3D display card is in use, without the motherboard chipset drivers in place, 2D display will generally work OK but the system will 'crash' when a 3D function call is made.
