safe boot takes me to a black screen?

hi, computer had a bit of a virus in windows xp so I ran malwarebytes, now the computer won't boot at all and only hangs on the manufacturer loading screen, when i try to go into safe modes it always goes to a black screen with safemode written in the corners

i haven't got a xp cd and don't want to lose all the data

thanks

Update:

nothing on the safe mode choices page helps
