Run Ubuntu on the CD-ROM grab the files you need, and Install Ubuntu.

Is it possible to start windows in safe mode? (push F8 repeatedly after bios POST)
if it is, then try to run msconfig, and disable all non essential programs in the startup, reboot and see if it works.
after you get it to boot, re-enable the disabled programs one by one (reboot after each one), or maybe run a new full scan by mbam, to see it it missed anything at the first run.

If you have an original windows repair/install dvd, you can also try to boot from that, and select the repair option.
